22-Inch Tyres
If the vehicle has 22-inch P285/
45R22 size tyres, they are
classified as touring tyres and
are designed for on-road use.
The low-profile, wide tread
design is not recommended for
off-road driving. See
Off-Road
Driving on page 9-4
, for
additional information.
Notice:
Low-profile tyres are
more susceptible to damage
from road hazards or curb
impact than standard profile
tyres. Tyre and/or wheel
assembly damage can occur
when coming into contact
with road hazards like,
potholes, or sharp edged
objects, or when sliding into a
curb. The warranty does not
cover this type of damage.
Keep tyres set to the correct
inflation pressure and, when
possible, avoid contact with
curbs, potholes, and other
road hazards.
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
