Vehicle Care
Warning (Continued)
tipe may seriously affect ride, handling,
ground clearance, stopping distance, body
clearance and speedometer reliability.
Tire Rotation
It is recommended that you:
Tires should be rotated at every 12,000 km.
Tires are rotated to achieve a more uniform
wear for all tires. The first rotation is the
most important. Any time unusual wear is
noticed, rotate the tires as soon as possible
and check the wheel alignment. Also check
for damaged tires or wheels.
Driving conditions, driving techniques,
vehicle loading and weather may warrant
more frequent tire checks and rotation.
* Needed Rotation Picture
Front and rear tires can wear differently
depending on:
.
Types of roads driven on
.
Driving habits
.
Tire pressures
.
Wheel alignment and balance
Check that all wheel nuts are properly
tightened. See
“
Wheel Nut Torque

under
Pulling Test Milage
GM recommends that you drive your new
vehicle at least 800 kilometers before
evaluating your vehicle for steering pull.
Buying New Tires
GM recommends replacing worn tires in
complete sets of four. Uniform tread depth
on all tires will help to maintain the
performance of the vehicle. Braking and
handling performance may be adversely
affected if all the tires are not replaced at
the same time. If proper rotation and
maintenance have been done, all four tires
should wear out at about the same time.
However, if it is necessary to replace only
one axle set of worn tires, place the new
tires on the rear axle.
Refer to the tire placard on the vehicle for
tire size and load rating.
Using a different size or type of tire may
affect:
.
Ride
.
Handling
.
Speedometer accuracy
.
Vehicle ground clearance
.
Tire clearance
.
Snow chain clearance
