CAUTION:
Without the correct wheel, you may not be able
to stop properly, and you could have other
problems like a tire air
-out. You could have a
collision. If you don't go to your dealer to get a
new wheel, be sure you get the correct one. Each
new wheel should match the original wheel in
load
-carrying capacity, inflation pressure
capacity, diameter, width, offset and mounting
configuration.
Using wheels and tires with higher load-carrying limits
than the original wheels and tires doesn't change the
GAWR or the GVWR of your vehicle.
NOTICE:
The wrong wheel can cause trouble in bearing
life, brake cooling, speedometer/odometer
calibration, headlamp aim, bumper height,
vehicle ground clearance, stopping distance and
tire clearance to the body and chassis. You could
also have other problems like a tire air
-out.
Used Replacement Wheels
CAUTION:
Putting a used wheel on your vehicle is
dangerous. You can't know how it's been used or
how many miles it's been driven. It could fail
suddenly and cause an accident. If you have to
replace a wheel, use a new GM original
equipment wheel.

Replacement Bulbs
It is recommended that you use an AC

whenever you need to replace one.
Before you replace any bulbs, be sure that all lamps are
off and the engine isn't running.
