340 Vehicle Care
Warning (Continued)
If a tube is to be used,
make sure special radial
tire tubes are used
because of the increased
flexing of the sidewalls
on radial tires.
Never use antifreeze,
silicones,
or petroleum-based
lubricants when mounting
radial tires. Only an
approved lubricant
should be used as an aid
for mounting tires.
Always inflate tires in a
safety cage.
Warning
To prevent property damage,
personal injury, or death:
Do not mix stud-piloted
wheels or fasteners with
hub-piloted wheels or
fasteners.
Do not mix foreign (not
made in North America)
wheel mounting parts with
domestic (made in North
America) parts. Many
foreign wheel components
look similar to, but are not
exactly the same as,
domestic made
components. Mixing
components can cause
wheel or fastener failures.
Do not change from
aluminum wheels to steel
wheels, or vice-versa,
without changing the
mounting hardware. In some
cases with flange nut

mounting systems, changing
the hub and stud assembly
may be required. Mixing
components could cause
wheel or fastener failures.
Warning
To prevent property damage,
personal injury, and/or death,
when installing the tire and rim
assembly on disc brake-equipped
axles, make sure the tire valve
stem clears the brake caliper. The
use of either a GM valve stem
retainer or a tire manufacturer s
stem forming tool is the only
acceptable method of obtaining
clearance when necessary.
Failure to obtain proper clearance
may result in rapid tire deflation.
Check for damaged or bent wheels.
Check to see that all lug nuts are
present and not loose. Look for rust
