Diagnostic Starting Point - Tires and Wheels: Notes

Prior to performing any work, always road test the car and perform a careful visual inspection for:

• Obvious tire and wheel runout
• Obvious drive axle runout
• Improper tire inflation
• Incorrect trim height
• Bent or damaged wheels
• Debris build-up on the tire or the wheel
• Irregular or excessive tire wear
• Improper tire bead seating on the rim
• Imperfections in the tires, including tread deformations, separations, or bulges from impact damage - Slight sidewall indentations are normal and will not affect ride quality.
