Solution

1. Preparation

• Gather necessary tools and parts.
• Ensure the vehicle is parked on a flat surface.
• Wear safety gloves and goggles.

2. Tire Inspection and Replacement

1. Inspect Tires:
   • Check for tread depth, uneven wear, bulges, or foreign objects.
   • Replace any damaged tires as needed.
2. Replace Tires:
   • If any tire needs replacement, use a jack to lift the vehicle and remove the wheel nuts with a socket set.
   • Remove the wheel and install the new tire, ensuring it's properly seated on the rim.
   • Reinstall wheel nuts and torque them to the manufacturer’s specifications (usually 100-150 lb-ft).

3. Tire Balancing

1. Mount Tires:
   • Place each tire on the balancing machine.
   • Spin each tire to determine the balance.
2. Add Weights:
   • If the tire is unbalanced, add wheel weights as indicated by the machine.
   • Recheck balance after adding weights.

4. Wheel Alignment

1. Set Up Alignment Machine:
   • Attach the alignment equipment to the vehicle’s wheels.
2. Adjust Alignment:
   • Follow the machine's instructions to adjust the camber, caster, and toe settings to the specifications listed in the vehicle’s service manual.

5. Final Inspection

• After performing repairs, recheck tire pressure and ensure all components are secure.
• Lower the vehicle and perform a test drive to assess any remaining issues.
