Tires

Replace or rotate tires in accordance with maintenance sched-

ules and treadwear.

Checking tires

New tread

Treadwear indicator

Worn tread

The location of treadwear
indicators is shown by the
“TWI” or “

” marks, etc.,

molded on the sidewall of
each tire.

Check spare tire condition
and pressure if not rotated.

Tire rotation

Rotate the tires in the order
shown.

To equalize tire wear and
extend tire life, Toyota recom-
mends that tire rotation is
carried out at the same inter-
val as tire inspection.

Vehicles with P195/50R16
tires:
Do not fail to initialize the tire
pressure warning system
after tire rotation.
