(2) Make sure that there are no cracks on the wheel rims.
(4) Make sure that the valve thread is not damaged. Fully tighten the valve cap which seals the valve from dirt and leaks.

(1) Make sure that the aircraft tires are in the correct condition to continue to operate on the aircraft.
Remove the wheel when the tire is worn to the base of any groove in one or more points, or if you can see any reinforcing material (metal or fabric).
NOTE: Refer to the limits for the use of the tires.
(2) Make sure that the tire pressure is in the specified limits (Ref. AMM TASK 32-41-00-21 O-Ocm...
(3) Obey the tire mixability precautions (Ref. AMMTASK 32-41-00..910.. 001) .
(4) Remove the wheel when the tire shows signs of a tread bUlge (make a mark on the bulge before you deflate the tire) (Ref. AMM TASK 32..41-11-000
006) (Ref. AMM TASK 32-41-11-400-006) or (Ref. AMM TASK_32-41-12-000-001) (Ref.AMM TASK 32-41 ..12..400..001) .
(5) If the tread is not worn equally and if it is necessary, remove the wheel and put it on the opposite axle (Ref. AMM TASK 32-41-11-000-006) (Ref.,AMM TASK 32
41 ~11-400 ..00Ql or (Ref.AMM-Ih'.~34~j_-12..000..001) (Ref. AMM TASK 32-41 :12-400-0Q1l).
(6) If you find tread wear on the shoulder of the tire, inflate the tire to the nominal inflation pressure plus 10 per cent.
NOTE: This 10 per cent increase gives the new maximum of the Normal Operating Range (N.O.R.) and not a new Nominal Pressure (P.N.).
Example: For a Nominal Pressure of 200 PSI, the maximum of the N.O.R. becomes 220 PSI.

An equal wear of the tread shows that the tire maintenance was correct during the tire life.
.. high deflection of the tire, with subsequent heat build-Up which can cause important internal tire damage.
(b) Over inflation (when the tire pressure is more than 105% of the nominal pressure (Refer to table of pressure) (Ref. AMM TASK 32..41-00-210-003) can:
.. cause too much wear on the center of the tire tread,
- increase the risk of Foreign Object Damage (FaD) to the tire.
(3) Maximum speed of utilization
On A318, A319, A320 and A321 aircraft, the maximum operation speed is 225 MPH (195 KTS).
Flat spot are caused by locking of the wheel during braking, hard touch down or sudden steering maneuvers (for the NLG tires).
A peeled rib usually starts with a cut in the tread and causes a circumferential delamination of the tread rib away from the tire carcass.

An open tread splice is a crack in the rubber where there is separation of joint or splice.
0) Tread chipping
and chunking
This is a condition that you can see at the edge of the tread rib where small quantities of rubber start to separate from the tread surface. Tread chunking can
be caused by high lateral loading of the tire sometimes caused by tight turning.
Weathering and cracking occur when tires are in aggressive environmental conditions.
Monitor the circular tire movement during the subsequent five flight cycles.
(b) If the circular tire movement is more than 20 mm (0.79 in.) after five flight cycles:
NOTE: To measure the circular movement of the tire on the wheel you can:
- Paint a continuous radial line on the tire and wheel when the tire is installed
