Used Replacement Wheels
Tire
Chains
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 a crash. If you have to
replace a wheel, use a new
GM
original
equipment wheel.
If your vehicle has P265/75R16, LT265R5R16,
P265nOR16, or P265ROR17 size tires, don’t use
tire chains. They can damage your vehicle
because there’s not enough clearance. Tire
chains used on a vehicle without
the
proper
amount of clearance can cause damage to the
brakes, suspension or other vehicle parts. The
area damaged bythe tire chains could cause
you to lose control of your vehicle and you or
others may be injured
in
a crash.
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.
If you do find traction devices that will fit,
install them on the rear tires.
