NOTICE:
The wrong wheel can also cause problems with
bearing life, brake cooling, speedometer or
odometer calibration, headlamp aim, bumper
height, vehicle ground clearance and tire
or
tire
chain clearance to the body and chassis.
See “Changing
a
Flat Tire” in the
Index
for
more information.
Used Replacement Wheels
Putting
a
used wheel on your vehicle is
dangerous. You can’t know how it’s been used or
how
far
it’s been driven. It could fail suddenly
and cause an accident. If you have to replace
a
wheel, use
a
new
GM
original equipment wheel.
Tire Chains
NOTICE:
If your vehicle has P23975R15, P23970R15
or
31xlOSOR15LT/C size tires, don’t use tire chains.
They can damage your vehicle because there’s
not enough clearance.
Use another type
of
traction device only
if
its
manufacturer recommends it
for
use on your
vehicle and tire size combination and road
conditions. Follow that manufacturer’s
instructions. To help avoid damage to your
vehicle, drive slowly, readjust or remove the
device if it’s contacting your vehicle, and don’t
spin your wheels.
