Warning (Continued)
When replacing wheels, use
a new GM original
equipment wheel.
Caution
The wrong wheel can also
cause problems with bearing
life, brake cooling,
speedometer or odometer
calibration, headlamp aim,
bumper height, vehicle
ground clearance, and tire or
tire chain clearance to the
body and chassis.
Tire Chains
{Warning
If the vehicle has 265/45R21
size tires, do not use tire
chains. There is not enough
clearance. Tire chains used
on a vehicle without the
proper amount of clearance(Continued)
Warning (Continued)
can cause damage to the
brakes, suspension, or other
vehicle parts. The area
damaged by the tire chains
could cause loss of control
and a crash. Use another
type of traction device only
if its manufacturer
recommends it for the
vehicle's tire size
combination and road
conditions. Follow that
manufacturer's instructions.
To avoid vehicle damage,
drive slow and readjust or
remove the traction device if
it contacts the vehicle. Do
not spin the wheels. If
traction devices are used,
install them on the front
tires.
Caution
If the vehicle is equipped
with a tire size other than
265/45R21, use tire chains
only where legal and only
when necessary. Use low
profile chains that add no
more than 12 mm thickness
to the tire tread and inner
sidewall. Use chains that are
the proper size for the tires.
Install them on the tires of
the front axle. Do not use
chains on the tires of the
rear axle. Tighten them as
tightly as possible with the
ends securely fastened.
Drive slowly and follow the
chain manufacturer's
instructions. If the chains
contact the vehicle, stop and
retighten them. If the
contact continues, slow
down until it stops. Driving
too fast or spinning the
wheels with chains on will
damage the vehicle.

Towing

means towing the vehicle
behind another vehicle, such
as behind a motor home. The
two most common types of
recreational vehicle towing are
known as dinghy towing and
dolly towing. Dinghy towing is
towing the vehicle with all four
wheels on the ground. Dolly
towing is towing the vehicle
with two wheels on the
ground and two wheels up on
a device known as a dolly.
Here are some important
things to consider before
