CAUTION:

Incorrect wheel nuts or improperly
tightened wheel nuts can cause the wheel
to come loose and even come off. This
could lead to an accident. Be sure to use
the correct wheel nuts. If you have to
replace them, be sure to get new GM
original equipment wheel nuts. Stop
somewhere as soon as you can and have
the nuts tightened with a torque wrench
to the proper torque specification. See
Capacities and Specifications
on page 422
for wheel nut torque specification.

Notice: Improperly tightened wheel nuts can
lead to brake pulsation and rotor damage.
To avoid expensive brake repairs, evenly
tighten the wheel nuts in the proper sequence
and to the proper torque specification. See
Capacities and Specifications
on page 422 for
the wheel nut torque specification.

12. Tighten the nuts

firmly in a crisscross
sequence as
shown by turning
the wheel wrench
clockwise.

13. After installing the wheel and tire, you must

reinstall the center cap. Place the cap on the
wheel and tap it into place until it sits flush
with the wheel.
