Replace the wheel if any of the following conditions exist:
| • | The wheel exhibits excessive runout. |
| • | The wheel is severely corroded. |
| | Note: Air leaks caused by porosity on aluminum wheels are repairable.
|
| | Warning: 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.
|
Caution: 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.
