2006 Cadillac CTS CTS-V Owners Manual

Different Size Tires and Wheels
{
CAUTION:
If you add wheels or  tires that are a different size than
your original equipment wheels and  tires, this may
affect the way your vehicle performs, including its
braking, ride and handling characteristics,  stability and
resistance to rollover. Additionally, if  your vehicle
has electronic systems such as,  antilock brakes; traction
control; and electronic stability control, the performance
of these systems can be  affected.
If you use bias-ply tires  on your vehicle, the
wheel rim flanges could develop  cracks after
many miles of driving. A  tire and/or wheel
could fail suddenly, causing a  crash. Use only
radial-ply tires with the wheels  on your vehicle.
If you must replace your  vehicle’s tires with those that
do not have a TPC  Spec number, make sure they are
the same size, load range, speed rating and construction
type (radial and bias-belted tires)  as your vehicle’s
original tires.
{
CAUTION:
If you add different sized  wheels, your vehicle
may not provide an acceptable  level of
performance and safety if tires  not
recommended for those wheels are  selected.
You may increase the chance  that you will
crash and suffer serious injury.  Only use
GM specific wheel and tire  systems developed
for your vehicle, and have  them properly
installed by a GM certified  technician.
Vehicles equipped with a tire  pressure monitoring
system may give an inaccurate  low-pressure warning if
non-TPC spec rated tires are installed on your 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 5-69.
Your vehicle’s original equipment tires  are listed on
the Tire and Loading Information Label. This label
is attached to the vehicle’s  center pillar (B-pillar). See
Loading Your Vehicle on page 4-32, for more information
about the Tire and Loading  Information Label and its
location on your vehicle.
See Buying New Tires on  page 5-74 and Accessories
and Modifications on page 5-3 for  additional information.
