CAUTION
•
The vehicle must not be driven with
wheels of different dimensions or with a
spare tire other than the one that came
with the vehicle. The use of different size
wheels can seriously damage your vehi-
cle's transmission.
•
Correct tightening torque on wheel
bolts must be observed. The wheel
bolts should never be greased or lubri-
cated. The extended, chromed wheel
bolts must not be used with steel rims,
as they make it impossible to fit the hub
caps.
•
Locking wheel bolts can be used on
both aluminum and steel wheels. If hub
caps are used on steel wheels, the lock-
ing wheel bolt should be mounted in the
hole as far from the tire's inflation valve
as possible. It would otherwise not be
possible to mount the hub cap on the
wheel.
