Used Replacement Wheels
{CAUTION
Putting a used wheel on your
vehicle is dangerous. You cannot
know how it has been used or
how far it has been driven. It
could fail suddenly and cause a
crash. If you have to replace a
wheel, use a new Saturn original
equipment wheel.

Do not use tire chains. There is
not enough clearance. Tire chains
used on a vehicle without the
proper amount of clearance can
cause damage to the brakes,
suspension or other vehicle parts.
The area damaged by the tire
chains could cause you to lose
control of the vehicle and you or
others may be injured in a crash.

device only if its manufacturer
recommends it for use on the

that manufacturer’s instructions.
To help avoid damage to the
vehicle, drive slowly, readjust or
remove the device if it is contacting
the vehicle, and do not spin the
vehicle’s wheels. If you do nd
traction devices that will t, install
