Caution: Do Not use flat mount wheels on dual ring type wheel applications. The use of
flat mount wheels on a dual ring application may cause the wheel to loosen and could
cause loss of vehicle control resulting in personal injury.
Replace the wheel if any of the following conditions exist:
• | The wheel exhibits excessive runout. |
• | The wheel is severely corroded. |
| Important: Air leaks caused by porosity on aluminum wheels are repairable.
|
| Caution: If you are replacing the wheel(s), the wheel stud(s), the wheel nut(s)
or the wheel bolt(s), install only new GM original equipment parts. Installation
of used parts or non-GM original equipment parts may cause the wheel to loosen,
loss of tire air pressure, poor vehicle handling and loss of vehicle control
resulting in personal injury.
|
Notice: The use of non-GM original equipment wheels may cause:
• | Damage to the wheel bearing, the wheel fasteners and the wheel |
• | Tire damage caused by the modified clearance to the adjacent vehicle
components |
• | Adverse vehicle steering stability caused by the modified
scrub radius |
• | Damage to the vehicle caused by the modified ground clearance |
• | Speedometer and odometer inaccuracy |
Replace the wheel, the wheel studs and the wheel/nuts, or the wheel bolts if
applicable, if any of the following conditions exist:
• | The wheel has elongated bolt holes. |
• | The wheel/nuts, or bolts if applicable, loosen repeatedly. |
Aluminum wheel identification is cast into the inboard side of the wheel.
