Run-Flat Tires; Self-Sealing Tires - Cadillac CT4 2023 Owner's Manual

With winter tires, there may be decreased
dry road traction, increased road noise, and
shorter tread life. After changing to winter
tires, be alert for changes in vehicle
handling and braking.
If using winter tires:
Use tires of the same brand and tread
type on all four wheel positions.
Use only radial ply tires of the same size,
load range, and speed rating as the
original equipment tires.
Winter tires with the same speed rating as
the original equipment tires may not be
available for H, V, W, Y, and ZR speed rated
tires. If winter tires with a lower speed
rating are chosen, never exceed the tire's
maximum speed capability.

Run-Flat Tires

This vehicle, when new, may have had
run-flat tires. There is no spare tire, no tire
changing equipment, and no place to store a
tire in the vehicle.
Warning
While driving with run-flat tires at a
reduced inflation pressure, avoid making
sudden stops or severe maneuvers as the
handling capabilities of the tires will be
reduced. Driving too fast could cause loss
of control and you or others could be
injured. Do not drive over 80 km/h
(50 mph) with the tire operating at low
pressure. Drive cautiously and check the
tire pressure as soon as possible.
Run-flat tires can be driven up to 80 km
(50 mi) at speeds less than 80 km/h
(50 mph) after a loss of inflation pressure
has occurred. There is no need to stop on
the side of the road to change the tire. The
possible driving range after a pressure loss
will vary based on the vehicle load and
driving conditions. As soon as possible,
contact the nearest authorized GM or
run-flat servicing facility for inspection and
repair or replacement.
When driving on a deflated run-flat tire,
avoid potholes and other road hazards that
could damage the tire and/or wheel beyond
repair. When a tire has been damaged, or if
driven any distance while deflated, check
Vehicle Care
with an authorized run-flat tire service
center to determine whether the tire can be
repaired or should be replaced. To maintain
the run-flat feature, all replacement tires
must be run-flat tires.
To locate the nearest GM or run-flat
servicing facility, call Customer Assistance.

Self-Sealing Tires

This vehicle may have self-sealing tires.
These tires have a material inside that can
seal punctures from common road hazards,
such as nails and screws, in the tread area.
The tire may lose air pressure if the sidewall
is damaged or the tread puncture is too
large. If the Tire Pressure Monitor System
indicates the tire pressure is low, inspect the
tire for damage and inflate it to the
recommended pressure. If the tire is unable
to maintain the recommended pressure,
contact the nearest authorized GM servicing
facility immediately for inspection and repair
or replacement. To locate the nearest GM
servicing facility, call GM Customer
Assistance.
