Buying New Tires

GM has developed and matched speciﬁc tires for

your vehicle. The original equipment tires installed

on your vehicle, when it was new, were designed to

meet General Motors Tire Performance Criteria

Speciﬁcation (TPC Spec) system rating. If you need

replacement tires, GM strongly recommends that

you get tires with the same TPC Spec rating. This

way, your vehicle will continue to have tires that are

designed to give the same performance and vehicle

safety, during normal use, as the original tires.

GM’s exclusive TPC Spec system considers over a

dozen critical speciﬁcations that impact the overall

performance of your vehicle, including brake

system performance, ride and handling, traction

control, and tire pressure monitoring performance.

GM’s TPC Spec number is molded onto the tire’s

sidewall near the tire size. If the tires have an

all-season tread design, the TPC Spec number will

be followed by an MS for mud and snow. See Tire

Sidewall Labeling on page 5-53 for additional

information.

GM recommends replacing tires in sets of four. This

is because uniform tread depth on all tires will help

keep your vehicle performing most like it did when

the tires were new. Replacing less than a full set of

tires can affect the braking and handling

performance of your vehicle. See Tire Inspection

and Rotation on page 5-67 for information on

proper tire rotation.

{CAUTION:

Mixing tires could cause you to lose

control while driving. If you mix tires of

different sizes, brands, or types (radial

and bias-belted tires), the vehicle may not

handle properly, and you could have a

crash. Using tires of different sizes,

brands, or types may also cause damage

to your vehicle. Be sure to use the correct

size, brand, and type of tires on all

wheels. It is all right to drive with your

compact spare temporarily, as it was

developed for use on your vehicle. See

Compact Spare Tire on page 5-88.
