Notes on Wheels and Tires

1. Do not use wheels or tires other than specified types.

2. Aluminum wheels are easily scratched. Use a soft cloth when washing them, never a wire brush. If vehicle is steam cleaned, do not allow boiling water to contact wheels.

3. If alkaline compounds (such as saltwater or road salts) get on aluminum wheels, wash them as soon as possible to prevent damage. Use a mild detergent only.
