and/or wheel could fail suddenly
and cause a crash. Use only
radial-ply tyres with the wheels
on the vehicle.
If the vehicle tyres must be
replaced with a tyre that does not
have a TPC Spec number, make
sure they are the same size, load
range, speed rating, and
construction type (radial) as the
original tyres.
Vehicles that have a tyre pressure
monitoring system could give an
inaccurate low-pressure warning if
non-TPC Spec rated tyres are
installed. See Tyre Pressure
Monitor Operation 0 278.
The Tyre and Loading Information
label indicates the original
equipment tyres on the vehicle.
See Vehicle Load Limits 0 191, for
the label location and more
information about the Tyre and
Loading Information label.
Different Size Tyres and
Wheels
If wheels or tyres are installed that are
a different size than the original
equipment wheels and tyres, vehicle
performance, 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, electronic stability control,
or All-Wheel Drive, 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
tyres not recommended for those
wheels are selected. This increases
the chance of a crash and serious

injury. Only use GM specific wheel
and tyre systems developed for the
vehicle, and have them properly
installed by a GM certified
technician.

Wheel Alignment and Tyre

Balance

The tyres and wheels were aligned and
balanced at the factory to provide the
longest tyre life and best overall
performance. Adjustments to wheel
alignment and tyre balancing are not
necessary on a regular basis. Consider
an alignment check if there is unusual
tyre wear or the vehicle is significantly
pulling to one side or the other. Some
slight pull to the left or right,
depending on the crown of the road
and/or other road surface variations
such as troughs or ruts, is normal.
