and Operation
Standard equipment with 2.0L/2.7L engines :
Normal (Soft) suspension and 16″wheel & tire
Optional equipment with 2.0L/2.7L engines :
Sports (Hard) suspension and 17″wheel & tire
The front suspension identification mark can be seen when the front wheel & tire is removed.
The following degeneration in vehicle performance may occur when installing the 17″tires to the 2.0L
vehicle models equipped with the normal front suspension.
The handling may be inferior to the vehicles with 16″tires. However installing 17″tires to the vehicles with
hard suspensions does not affect the driving performance.
The 17″tire is for summer season.
Therefore, its performance in snow is inferior to the 16″tire for all seasons.
The 17″ tire is directional
An unexpected noise and vibration may occur if tires are not installed correctly according to the rotational
direction.
The snow chain with the thickness lower than 10mm is recommended to use on vehicles with 17″tires.
