Wheel
Replacement
Replace
any
wheel that is bent, cracked, or badly rusted
or
corroded.
If
wheel nuts keep coming loose, the wheel,
wheel bolts and wheel nuts should be replaced.
If
the
wheel leaks air, replace
it
(except some aluminum
wheels, which can sometimes be repaired). See your
Pontiac dealer if any
of
these conditions exist.
Your dealer will know the kind
of
wheel you need.
Each new
wheel
should have the
same
load-carrying
capacity, diameter, width, offset and be mounted the
same
way as the one it replaces.
If
you
need
to
replace any
of
your wheels, wheel
bolts or wheel nuts, replace them only with new
CM
original equipment
parts.
This
way,
you
will
be
sure
to
have the right wheel, wheel. bolts and wheel nuts
for
your
Pontiac model.
Using the wrong replacement wheels, wheel bolts
or
wheel nuts
on
your vehicle can be dangerous.
It
could affect
the
braking
and
handling
of
your
vehicle, make your tires
lose
air
and make you
lose
control.
You
could have
a
collision in which
you or others could be injured.
Always
use
the
correct wheel, wheel bolts and wheel nuts
for
replacement.
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.
