Important: The 2007 Cadillac SRX Sport with RPO R1T is equipped with 20" wheels. The front and rear tire/wheel assemblies are the same size. Customers with this vehicle are able to rotate their tires.
The above listed vehicles are manufactured with tire/wheel assemblies that are different from front to rear. In this case, the tires should not be rotated.
If a customer requests to have the tires rotated during normal maintenance, explain to them that the tire/wheel assemblies of their vehicle were designed to be different sizes to enhance the vehicle's handling performance.
Important: Changing the tire/wheel sizes or rotating the tires may affect the vehicle's handling and ride characteristics. GM DOES NOT recommend changing the OEM tires or wheels.
