If a Tire Goes Flat
Your Corvette has no spare tire, no tire changing
equipment and no place to store a tire.
It’s unusual for a tire to “blow out” while you’re driving,
especially if you maintain your tires properly. See Tires
on page 5-57. If air goes out of a tire, it’s much more
likely to leak out slowly.
Your vehicle has Extended Mobility Tires (EMT), so you
will not need to stop on the side of the road to change
a flat tire. EMT tires can operate effectively with no
air pressure. If you drive on a deflated EMT for 25 miles
(80 km) or less and at speeds of 55 mph (90 km/h) or
less, there is a good chance that the tire can be
repaired. Contact the nearest authorized Chevrolet or
Goodyear EMT servicing facility, as soon as possible, to
have the flat tire inspected and repaired or replaced.
For more information, see Extended Mobility Tires
on page 5-62.

CAUTION:
Special tools and procedures are required to
service an Extended Mobility Tire (EMT).
If these special tools and procedures are not
used you or others could be injured and your
vehicle could be damaged. Always be sure the
proper tools and procedures, as described in
the service manual, are used.
