Tire Chains - Buick 2006 Rendezvous Owner's Manual

Used Replacement Wheels
CAUTION:
{
Putting a used wheel on your vehicle is
dangerous. You cannot know how it has been
used or how far it has been driven. It could fail
suddenly and cause a crash. If you have to
replace a wheel, use a new GM original
equipment wheel.

CAUTION:
{
Do not use tire chains. There is not enough
clearance. Tire chains used on a vehicle

or other vehicle parts. The area damaged by
the tire chains could cause you to lose control
of your vehicle and you or others may be
injured in a crash.
Use another type of traction device only if
its manufacturer recommends it for use on
your vehicle and tire size combination and
road conditions. Follow that manufacturer's
instructions. To help avoid damage to your
vehicle, drive slowly, readjust or remove the
device if it is contacting your vehicle, and
do not spin the wheels. If you do find traction
devices that will fit, install them on the
front tires for front-wheel-drive vehicles.
If your vehicle has all-wheel drive, install
traction devices on either the front tires or
all four tires, but never on the rear tires only.
