Tires

It is best to replace all four tires at

the same time. If that is not possible

or necessary, then replace the two

front tires or the two rear tires as a

pair. Replacing just one tire can

seriously affect your car's handling.

The ABS works by comparing the

speed of the wheels. When replacing

tires, use the same size originally

supplied with the car. Tire size and

construction can affect wheel speed

and may cause the system to work

inconsistently.

If you ever need to replace a wheel,

make sure the wheel's specifications

match those of the original wheel

that came on your car. Replacement

wheels are available at your Honda

dealer.
