braking efficiency and/or early brake
pad/shoe wear. Refer to “Wheels and
tires” in the “9. Technical and consumer
information” section of this manual for
wheel off-set dimensions.
O
When a spare tire is mounted or a wheel
is replaced, tire pressure will not be indi-
cated, the TPMS will not function and the
low tire pressure warning light will flash
for approximately 1 minute. The light will
remain on after 1 minute. Contact your
INFINITI dealer as soon as possible for
tire replacement and/or system reset-
ting.
O
Replacing tires with those not originally
specified by INFINITI could affect the
proper operation of the TPMS.
O
Do not install a deformed wheel or tire
even if it has been repaired. Such wheels
or tires could have structural damage
and could fail without warning.
O
The use of retread tire is not
recommended.

For additional information regarding
tires, refer to “Important Tire Safety In-
formation” (US) or “Tire Safety Informa-
tion” (Canada) in the Warranty Informa-
tion Booklet.
CAUTION
Always use tires of the same type, size,
brand, construction (bias, bias-belted or ra-
dial), and tread pattern on all four wheels.
Failure to do so may result in a circumference
difference between tires on the front and
rear axles which will cause excessive tire
wear and may damage the transmission,
transfer case and differential gears (AWD
models).
Wheel balance
Unbalanced wheels may affect vehicle
handling and tire life. Even with regular
use, wheels can get out of balance. There-
fore, they should be balanced as re-
quired.
Wheel balance service should be per-
formed with the wheels off the vehicle.
Spin balancing the wheels on the vehicle
could lead to transmission damage.
For additional information regarding tires,
refer to “Important Tire Safety Informa-
tion” (US) or “Tire Safety Information”
(Canada) in the INFINITI Warranty Informa-
tion Booklet.
Care of wheels
O
Wash the wheels when washing the
vehicle to maintain their appearance.
O
Clean the inner side of the wheels
when the wheel is changed or the un-
derside of the vehicle is washed.
O
Do not use abrasive cleaners when
washing the wheels.
O
Inspect wheel rims regularly for dents
or corrosion. Such damage may cause
loss of pressure or poor seal at the
tire bead.
O
INFINITI recommends that the road
wheels be waxed to protect against
road salt in areas where it is used
during winter.
