38 Vehicle Care
Caution
Do not use anything other than a
mix of DEX-COOL coolant that
meets GM Standard
GMW3420 and clean, drinkable
water. Anything else can cause
damage to the engine cooling
system and the vehicle, which
would not be covered by the
vehicle warranty.
Engine Coolant
See”Engine Coolant” under
“Cooling System” in the owner’s
manual.
Engine Overheating
See “Engine Overheating” in the
owner ’s manual.
Wheels and Tires
Low-Profile Tires
If the vehicle has 285/30ZR20,
305/30ZR20, 305/30ZR19,
or 325/30ZR19 size tires, they
are classified as low-profile tires.
Caution
Low-profile tires are more
susceptible to damage from road
hazards or curb impact than
standard profile tires. Tire and/or
wheel assembly damage can
occur when coming into contact
with road hazards like potholes,
or sharp edged objects, or when
sliding into a curb. The warranty
does not cover this type of
damage. Keep tires set to the
correct inflation pressure and
when possible, avoid contact with
curbs, potholes, and other road
hazards.
Summer Tires
High Performance Summer Tires
ZL1, SS with the 1LE package, and
LS/LT with the 1LE package are
equipped with high performance
summer tires. These tires have a
special tread and compound that
are optimized for maximum dry and
wet road performance. This special
tread and compound will have
decreased performance in cold
climates, and on ice and snow. It is
recommended that winter tires be
installed on the vehicle if frequent
driving at temperatures below
approximately 5 °C (40 °F) or on ice
or snow covered roads is expected.
See“Winter Tires” in the owner’s
manual.
Caution
High performance summer tires
have rubber compounds that lose
flexibility and may develop
surface cracks in the tread area
at temperatures below −7 °C

40 Vehicle Care
Towing the Vehicle
Caution
Incorrectly towing a disabled
vehicle may cause damage. The
damage would not be covered by
the vehicle warranty. Do not lash
or hook to suspension
components. Use the proper
straps around the tires to secure
the vehicle. Do not drag a locked
wheel/tire while loading the
vehicle. Do not use a sling type
lift to tow the vehicle. This could
damage the vehicle.
GM recommends a flatbed tow truck
to transport a disabled vehicle. Use
ramps to help reduce approach
angles, if necessary. A towed
vehicle should have its drive wheels
off the ground. Contact Roadside
Assistance or a professional towing
service if the disabled vehicle must
be towed. To tow the vehicle behind another
vehicle for recreational purposes,
such as behind a motor home, see
the owner
’s manual.SS 1LE, and ZL1 Only
Due to low ramp angles on ZL1 and
SS 1LE vehicles, use care when
loading the vehicle onto a flatbed
carrier. Front spring spacers are
provided for lifting the front
suspension if more clearance is
necessary when towing.
ZL1 1LE Only
Due to the high spring rate and
spring design used on ZL1 1LE
vehicles, spring spacers are not
provided. If more clearance is
needed when towing, raise the
adjustable spring seat to lift the front
suspension. See "Strut Spring Seat
Adjustment" in Track Events and
Competitive Driving 014.
Tow Eye Socket
The ZL1 vehicle is equipped with a
front tow eye that can be used to
pull the vehicle onto a flatbed car
carrier from a flat road surface. Do
not use the tow eye to pull the
vehicle from snow, mud, or sand.
The tow eye is in the rear
compartment storage area.
To install the tow eye:
1. Locate the tow eye socket through the opening in the
grille.
2. Install the tow eye into the socket by turning it clockwise
until it stops.
