Vehicle Care 10-79
Vehicles that have a tire pressure
monitoring system may give an
inaccurate low‐pressure warning
if non‐TPC Spec-rated tires are
installed on the vehicle. Non‐TPC
Spec-rated tires may give a
low‐pressure warning that is
higher or lower than the proper
warning level you would get with
TPC Spec-rated tires. See Tire
Pressure Monitor System on
page 10‑68.
The vehicle's original equipment
tires are listed on the Tire and
Loading Information label. See
Vehicle Load Limits on page 9‑25
for more information about the Tire
and Loading Information label and
its location on the vehicle.
Different Size Tires and
Wheels
If you add wheels or tires that are
a different size than the original
equipment wheels and tires, this
could affect the way the vehicle
performs, including its braking,
ride and handling characteristics,
stability, and resistance to rollover.
Additionally, if the vehicle has
electronic systems such as antilock
brakes, rollover airbags, traction
control, and electronic stability
control, the performance of these
systems can be affected.
{
WARNING
If different sized wheels are used,
there may not be an acceptable
level of performance and safety
if tires not recommended for
those wheels are selected.
This increases the chance
of a crash and serious injury.
Only use GM specific wheel
and tire systems developed
for the vehicle, and have them
properly installed by a GM
certified technician.

page 10‑77 and Accessories
