2007 GMC CANYON tire pressure

Buying New Tires
GM has developed and matched specic tires for
your vehicle. The original equipment tires
installed on your vehicle, when it was new, were
designed to meet General Motors Tire
Performance Criteria Specication (TPC spec)
system rating. If you need replacement tires, GM
strongly recommends that you get tires with
the same TPC Spec rating. This way, your vehicle
will continue to have tires that are designed to
give the same performance and vehicle safety,
during normal use, as the original tires.
GM’s exclusive TPC Spec system considers over
a dozen critical specications that impact the
overall performance of your vehicle, including
brake system performance, ride and handling,
traction control, and tire pressure monitoring
performance. GM’s TPC Spec number is molded
onto the tire’s sidewall by the tire manufacturer.
If the tires have an all-season tread design,
the TPC spec number will be followed by an MS
for mud and snow. SeeTire Sidewall Labeling
on page 370for additional information.{CAUTION:
Mixing tires could cause you to lose
control of your vehicle while driving. If you
mix tires of different sizes, brands, or types
(radial and bias-belted tires), the vehicle
may not handle properly, and you could
have a crash. Using tires of different sizes,
brands, or types may also cause damage to
your vehicle. Be sure to use the correct
size, brand, and type of tires on all wheels.
Your vehicle may have a compact spare
tire and wheel assembly. If the vehicle has
a compact spare tire and wheel, they have
the same overall diameter as your vehicle’s
full-size tires and wheels.

Spare Tire
Compact Spare Tire
Your vehicle may have a compact spare tire.
Although the compact spare tire was fully inated
when your vehicle was new, it can lose air over
time. Check the ination pressure regularly. It
should be 60 psi (420 kPa).
Notice:If your vehicle has four-wheel drive
and the compact spare tire is installed on your
vehicle, do not drive in four-wheel drive until
you can have your at tire repaired and/orreplaced. You could damage your vehicle, and
the repair costs would not be covered by your
warranty. Never use four-wheel drive when the
compact spare tire is installed on your vehicle.
After installing the compact spare on your vehicle,
you should stop as soon as possible and make sure
your vehicle’s spare tire is correctly inated. The
compact spare is made to perform well at speeds
up to 62 mph (100 km/h) for distances up to
500 miles (804 km).For heavy payloads or towing,
and for low traction or four-wheel-drive conditions,
repair or replace the full-size tire. Of course, it is
best to replace your vehicle’s spare with a full-size
tire as soon as you can. The spare tire will last
longer and be in good shape in case you need it
again.
Notice:When the compact spare is installed,
do not take your vehicle through an automatic
car wash with guide rails. The compact
spare can get caught on the rails. That can
damage the tire and wheel, and maybe
other parts of your vehicle.
Do not use your compact spare on other vehicles.

And do not mix your compact spare tire or wheel
with other wheels or tires. They will not t.
Keep your spare tire and its wheel together.
Notice:Tire chains will not t your compact
spare. Using them can damage your vehicle
and can damage the chains too. Do not use tire
chains on your compact spare.
Full-Size Spare Tire
Your vehicle may have a full-size spare tire,
which, when new, was fully inated. A spare tire
may lose air over time, so check its ination
pressure regularly. SeeInation - Tire Pressure on
page 377andLoading Your Vehicle on page 286
for information regarding proper tire ination
and loading your vehicle. For instruction on how to
remove, install, or store a spare tire, see
Removing the Flat Tire and Installing the Spare
Tire on page 398andStoring a Flat or Spare Tire
and Tools on page 410.Your vehicle may have a different size spare tire
than the road tires originally installed on your
vehicle. This spare was developed for use on your
vehicle, so it is alright to drive on it. If your
vehicle has four-wheel drive and the different size
spare tire is installed, keep the vehicle in
two-wheel drive.
Notice:If your vehicle has four-wheel drive
and the different size spare tire is installed on
your vehicle, do not drive in four-wheel
drive until you can have your at tire repaired
and/or replaced. You could damage your
vehicle, and the repair costs would not be
covered by your warranty. Never use
four-wheel drive when the different size spare
tire is installed on your vehicle.
After installing the spare tire on your vehicle, you
should stop as soon as possible and make
sure the spare is correctly inated. The spare tire
is made to perform well at speeds up to 62 mph
(100 km/h) for distances up to 500 miles (804 km).
