DIFFERENT SIZE TIRES

AND WHEELS

If wheels or tires are installed that are a

different size than the original equip-

ment wheels and tires, vehicle perfor-

mance, including its braking, ride and

handling characteristics, stability, and

resistance to rollover may be affected. If

the vehicle has electronic systems such

as antilock brakes, rollover airbags,

traction control, and electronic stability

control, the performance of these

systems can also be affected.

Warning

If different sized wheels are used,

there may not be an acceptable level

of performance and safety if tires not

recommended for those wheels are

selected. This increases the chance

of a crash and serious injury. Only

use GM specific wheel and tire

systems developed for the vehicle,

and have them properly installed by

a GM certified technician.

WHEEL ALIGNMENT AND

TIRE BALANCE

The tires and wheels were aligned and

balanced at the factory to provide the

longest tire life and best overall

performance. Adjustments to wheel

alignment and tire balancing will not be

necessary on a regular basis. However,

check the alignment if there is unusual

tire wear or if the vehicle is pulling to

one side or the other. If the vehicle

vibrates when driving on a smooth

road, the tires and wheels might need to

be rebalanced. See your CHEVROLET

retailer for proper diagnosis.
