3. Remove the calipers (3) fromthe knuckle.
4. Remove the brake rotors (2).
5. Remove the original front splash shields (1).
6. Remove the lower control arm deflectors.
7. Detach the wheel speed sensor harness clips from the
lower control arm deflector.8. Install the small splash shieldswith two screws (2) per corner.
Torque to 9 Y(80 lb inch).
Caution
Failure to reattach the wheel
speed sensor harness clips
correctly could cause interference
with the wheel speed sensor, and
could damage the vehicle.
9. Re-attach the wheel speed sensor harness clips by
pushing them from the bottom up, on the back tab. On the
original deflector, the push pins
are pushed from the top down.
10. Install the tall deflectors with three screws (1) per corner.
Torque to 3.3 Y(29 lb inch).
When installing new control
arms, torque the three screws
to 4.5 Y(40 lb inch).
11. Install the front rotors with one screw per corner. Torque to
9Y (80 lb inch).
12. Apply liquid thread adhesive to
the caliper bolts (GM Part No.

Goodwrench 12345493). Install
the calipers with two screws (1)
per corner. Torque the caliper
bolts to 200Y(148 lb ft).
13. Reinstall the front wheels using the wheel nut torque. See
Capacities and Specifications
0320.
Caution
After a track event, remove the
tall deflector and the small splash
shield and reinstall the original
deflector and splash shield.
(Continued)
Caution (Continued)
Failure to reinstall the original
parts may lead to corrosion, loss
of output, noise, premature brake
pad and rotor wear, reduced
high-speed wet braking, and
damage to the tall deflector.
14. After a track event, repeat the steps to reinstall the original
lower control arm deflectors
and splash shields.
15. Reinstall the tire deflectors.
Custom Launch Control (If
Equipped)
Custom Launch Control allows the
following parameters for Launch
Control to be modified:
. Launch RPM
. Slip Target (5%–15%)
. Surface Type
To adjust the Launch RPM, all of
these conditions must be met: .
The vehicle must be in Track
Mode. See “Track Mode” under
Driver Mode Control 0196.
. Performance Traction
Management (PTM) Mode must
be enabled. For convertibles,
and SS equipped with 10-speed
automatic, Competitive Driving
Mode must be enabled. See
Driver Mode Control 0196.
. The steering wheel must be
straight.
. The driver door must be closed.
. The transmission must be in a
gear other than R (Reverse).
It will work in P (Park) or
N (Neutral).
. The parking brake must not be
engaged.

Use this rotation pattern if the
vehicle has different size tires
on the front and rear.
Different tire sizes should not be
rotated front to rear.
Use this rotation pattern when
rotating tires of the same size
installed on all four wheel
positions.
If the vehicle has a compact
spare tire, do not include it in the
tire rotation.Adjust the front and rear tires to
the recommended inflation
pressure on the Tire and
Loading Information label after
the tires have been rotated. See
Tire Pressure
0267 and
Vehicle Load Limits 0170.
Reset the Tire Pressure Monitor
System. See Tire Pressure
Monitor Operation 0270.
Check that all wheel nuts are
properly tightened. See “Wheel
Nut Torque” underCapacities
and Specifications 0320.
{Warning
Rust or dirt on a wheel, or on
the parts to which it is
fastened, can make wheel
nuts become loose after time.
The wheel could come off and
cause a crash. When
changing a wheel, remove any
rust or dirt from places where
(Continued)
Warning (Continued)
the wheel attaches to the
vehicle. In an emergency, a
cloth or a paper towel can be
used; however, use a scraper
or wire brush later to remove
all rust or dirt.
Lightly coat the inner diameter of
the wheel hub opening with
wheel bearing grease after a
wheel change or tire rotation to
prevent corrosion or rust
build-up. Do not get grease on
the wheel mounting surface or
on the wheel nuts or bolts.
When It Is Time for New
Tires
Factors such as maintenance,
temperatures, driving speeds,
vehicle loading, and road conditions
affect the wear rate of the tires.

Wheel Alignment and Tire
Balance
The tires and wheels were aligned
and balanced at the factory to
provide the longest tire life and best
overall performance. Adjustments to
wheel alignment and tire balancing
are not necessary on a regular
basis. Consider an alignment check
if there is unusual tire wear or the
vehicle is significantly pulling to one
side or the other. Some slight pull to
the left or right, depending on the
crown of the road and/or other road
surface variations such as troughs
or ruts, is normal. If the vehicle is
vibrating when driving on a smooth
road, the tires and wheels may need
to be rebalanced. See your dealer
for proper diagnosis.
Wheel Replacement
Replace any wheel that is bent,
cracked, or badly rusted or
corroded. If wheel nuts keep coming
loose, the wheel, wheel bolts, and
wheel nuts should be replaced.
If the wheel leaks air, replace it.Some aluminum wheels can be
repaired. See your dealer if any of
these conditions exist.
Your dealer will know the kind of
wheel that is needed.
Each new wheel should have the
same load-carrying capacity,
diameter, width, offset, and be
mounted the same way as the one it
replaces.
Replace wheels, wheel bolts, wheel
nuts, or Tire Pressure Monitor
System (TPMS) sensors with new
GM original equipment parts.
{Warning
Using the wrong replacement
wheels, wheel bolts, or wheel
nuts can be dangerous. It could
affect the braking and handling of
the vehicle. Tires can lose air,
and cause loss of control, causing
a crash. Always use the correct
wheel, wheel bolts, and wheel
nuts for replacement.
Caution
The wrong wheel can also cause
problems with bearing life, brake
cooling, speedometer or
odometer calibration, headlamp
aim, rear differential, bumper
height, vehicle ground clearance,
and tire or tire chain clearance to
the body and chassis.
See If a Tire Goes Flat 0281 for
more information.
Used Replacement Wheels
{Warning
Replacing a wheel with a used
one is dangerous. How it has
been used or how far it has been
driven may be unknown. It could
fail suddenly and cause a crash.
When replacing wheels, use a
new GM original equipment
wheel.
