All-Season Tyres

This vehicle may come with
all-season tyres. These tyres are
designed to provide good overall
performance on most road surfaces
and weather conditions. Original
equipment tyres designed to GM's
specific tyre performance criteria
have a TPC specification code
moulded onto the sidewall. Original
equipment all-season tyres can be
identified by the last two characters
of this TPC code, which will
be MS.
Consider installing winter tyres on
the vehicle if frequent driving on
snow or ice-covered roads is
expected. All-season tyres provide
adequate performance for most
winter driving conditions, but they
may not offer the same level of
traction or performance as winter
tyres on snow or ice-covered roads.
See Winter Tyres on page 10-42.

Winter Tyres

This vehicle was not originally
equipped with winter tyres. Winter
tyres are designed for increased
traction on snow and ice-covered
roads. Consider installing winter
tyres on the vehicle if frequent
driving on ice or snow covered
roads is expected. See your dealer
for details regarding winter tyre
availability and proper tyre
selection. Also, see Buying New
Tyres on page 10-51.
With winter tyres, there may be
decreased dry road traction,
increased road noise and shorter
tread life. After changing to winter
tyres, be alert for changes in the
vehicle handling and braking.
If using winter tyres:
Use tyres of the same brand and
tread type on all four wheel
positions.
Use only radial ply tyres of the
same size, load range and
speed rating as the original
equipment tyres.
Winter tyres with the same speed
rating as the original equipment
tyres may not be available for H, V,
W, Y and ZR speed rated tyres.
If winter tyres with a lower speed
rating are chosen, never exceed the
tyre's maximum speed capability.

Summer Tyres

This vehicle may come with high
performance summer tyres. These
tyres have a special tread and
compound that are optimised for
maximum dry and wet road
performance. This special tread and
compound will have decreased
performance in cold climates, and
on ice and snow. We recommend
installing winter tyres on the vehicle
if frequent driving at temperatures
below approximately 5°C (40°F) or
on ice or snow covered roads is
expected. See Winter Tyres on
page 10-42.
