properly inflated and not overloaded.
Excessive speed, underinflation, or
excessive loading, either separately or in
combination, can cause heat buildup and
possible tire failure.
Those grades are molded on the
sidewalls of passenger car tires.
While the tires available as standard or
optional equipment on General Motors
vehicles may vary with respect to these
grades, all such tires meet General
Motors performance standards and have
been approved for use on General
Motors vehicles. All passenger type
(P metric) tires must conform to Federal
safety requirements in addition to these
grades.
Wheel Alignment and Tire Balance
The wheels on your vehicle were
aligned and balanced carefully at the
factory to give you the longest tire life
and best overall performance.
In
most cases, you will
not
need to have
your wheels aligned again. However, if
you notice unusual tire wear or your
vehicle pulling one way or the other, the
alignment may need to be reset. If you
notice your vehicle vibrating when
driving on a smooth road, your wheels
may need to be rebalanced.
Wheel Replacement
Replace any wheel that is bent, cracked
or badly rusted. If wheel nuts keep
coming loose, the wheel, wheel bolts,
and wheel nuts should be replaced. If
the wheel leaks air
out,
replace it
(except some aluminum wheels, which
can sometimes be repaired). See your
Geo dealer if
any of
these conditions
exist.
Your dealer will know the kind of wheel
you need.
If you need to replace any of your
wheels, wheel bolts, or wheel nuts,
replace them only with new GM original
equipment parts. This way, you will be
sure to have the right wheel, wheel
bolts, and wheel nuts for your Tracker.
