Warning: The traction grade assigned to this tire is based

braking (straightahead) traction tests and does not

include cornering (turning) traction.

Temperature

The temperature grades are

(the highest),

and

representing the tire’s resistance to the generation of

heat and

its

ability to dissipate heat when tested under

controlled conditions on a specified indoor laboratory

test wheel. Sustained high temperature can cause the

material of the tire to degenerate and reduce tire life, and

excessive temperature can lead to sudden tire failure.

The grade

corresponds to a level of performance

which all passenger car tires must meet under the

Grades

and

represent higher levels of performance on the

laboratory test wheel than the minimum required

law.

Warning: The temperature grade for this tire is

established for a tire that

properly inflated and not

overloaded. Excessive speed, underinflation, or

excessive loading, either separately or in combination,

can cause heat buildup and possible tire failure.

Wheel Alignment and Tire Balance

The wheels on your vehicle were aligned and balanced

carefully at the factory to give you the longest tire life

and best overall performance.

In most cases, you will not need to have your wheels

aligned again. However, if you notice unusual tire wear

or your vehicle pulling one way or the other, the

alignment may need to be reset.

you notice your

vehicle vibrating when driving on a smooth road, your

wheels may need to be rebalanced.

Wheel Replacement

Replace any wheel that

bent, cracked, or badly rusted

or corroded. If wheel nuts keep coming loose, the wheel,

wheel bolts and wheel nuts should be replaced. If the

wheel leaks air, replace

(except some aluminum

wheels, which can sometimes be repaired). See your

Chevrolet/Geo dealer if any of these conditions exist.

Your dealer will know the kind of wheel you need.

Each new wheel should have the same load-carrying

capacity, diameter, width, offset and be mounted the

same way as the one it replaces.
