If a tire goes flat, avoid further tire and wheel damage
by driving slowly to
a level place. Turn on your hazard
warning flashers.
The following steps will tell you how to use the jack and
change
a tire.
Your Corvette wheel lock key has
a unique registration
number. The registration number is printed on
a card
included in your locknut package. Also on this card is
lost key replacement information. This number is
NOT
recorded by GM or your dealer, so be sure not to lose
this card. You will need the information if you ever
lose
your wheel lock key.

Downloaded from www.Manualslib.com manuals search engine Extended Mobility Tires (Option)
If your Corvette has optional Goodyear Extended
Mobility Tires (EMT’s), the tires will have “EMT”
molded on the sidewalls. Your vehicle may also have a
spare tire delete option. With the spare tire delete option,
there’s no spare tire, no tire changing equipment and no
place to store a tire in the vehicle. Extended Mobility
Tires perform
so well without any air that a Low Tire
Pressure Warning System (LTPWS) is used to alert you if
a tire has lost pressure.
A LOWELAT TIRE light will
appear on your Driver Information Center
if a tire’s
inflation pressure is less than
25 psi (170 kPa). If the
LOW/FLAT
TIRE light comes on, check your tire
pressures as soon as you can. See “Low Tire Pressure
Warning System” in the Index for additional information. If a
tire goes flat,
you won’t need to stop on the side of
the road to change the tire. You can just keep on driving.
The shorter the distance
you drive and the slower the
speed, the greater the chance that the tire will not have
to be replaced. If
you drive on a deflated EMT for
distances
of 50 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. The tire can operate effectively with
no air pressure for up to 200 miles (320 km) at speeds
up to
55 mph (90 kmk), but the tire would then have to
be replaced. Also remember: When a tire is filled with
air, it provides a cushion between the road and the
wheel. Because you do not have this cushion when
driving on a deflated tire, try to avoid potholes that
could damage your wheel and require replacement of it.
Some road hazards can damage a tire beyond repair. This
damage could occur before you’ve driven on the tire
in a
deflated condition. Whenever a tire has been damaged, or
if you’ve driven any distance on a deflated EMT, check
with a Goodyear EMT Service Center to determine
whether
the tire can be repaired or should be replaced.
To maintain your vehicle’s extended mobility feature,
all replacement tires must be Extended Mobility Tires.
See the Goodyear Extended Mobility Tire Owner’s
Manual and Limited Warranty supplied with your
Corvette for additional information.
