Speed Restricted Tires
WARNING
This vehicle is equipped with speed re-
stricted
tires. Check each tire’s side-
wall and/or tire manufacturer's data
book for maximum rated speed. The
vehicle should not be operated at
speeds in excess of the maximum rat-
ed speed. Failure to comply with these
speed restrictions could cause sudden
tire failure, which can result in property
damage or personal injury.
Greenhouse Gas Certified Tires
NOTE
The tires installed on this vehicle at the
factory
as original equipment are certi-
fied for Greenhouse Gas and Fuel Effi-
ciency regulations. Replacement tires
must be of an equal or larger loaded
drive tire size and an equal or lower
rolling resistance level (TRRL or Crr).
Consult with your tire supplier(s) for
appropriate replacement tires.
In order to limit the rolling resistance of the
tires and optimize fuel economy
, the
maintenance procedures specified by the
tire manufacturer must be followed. Please
see Vehicle Emissions Limited Express
Warranty for warranty on greenhouse gas
certified tires.
Wheels
After the vehicle travels about 50 to 100
miles (80 to 160 km), wheel mountings
seat in and will lose some initial torque.
Check hub/wheel mountings after this
initial period and retighten. Threads should
be clean and dry. Do not lubricate wheel
nuts or studs.
WARNING
Never use oil or grease on studs or
nuts; improper torque readings will re-
sult, which could cause improper
wheel clamping and could lead to a
wheel failure resulting in an accident.
Failure to comply may result in death,
personal injury, equipment or property
damage.
Wheel Replacement with Disc
Brake Option
WARNING
Use only the wheel brand, size and
part
number originally installed. Use of
a different wheel brand or size could
cause valve stem to interfere with a
brake component which could lead to
loss of vehicle control. Failure to com-
ply may result in death, personal in-
jury, equipment or property damage.
Vehicles equipped with front disc brakes
are fitted with wheels designed specifically
for disc brake applications. If it ever
becomes necessary to replace an original
equipment wheel, the replacement wheel
must be the same brand and size as the
take-of
f wheel. On vehicles equipped with
22.5 in. disc wheels, installing the wrong
replacement wheel could result in the
wheel valve stem making contact with the
disc brake assembly. When installing any
replacement wheel, always inspect the
tires/wheels to ensure there is adequate
clearance between other vehicle
components. With the hood open, check
for clearance between the wheel and disc
brake assembly. Use a hydraulic jack to
