Scheme 1
| WARNING | Aftermarket wheel assemblies may not be compatible with the vehicle. Use of incompatible wheel assemblies can result in equipment failure and possible injury. Use only approved wheel assemblies. |
| WARNING | Use only integral two-piece swiveling lug nuts on vehicles equipped with dual rear wheels. Do not attempt to use cone-shaped one-piece lug nuts on these vehicles. If used, cone-shaped one-piece lug nuts can come loose in vehicle operation. Do not attempt to use past model wheels, which have cone-shaped wheel hub bolt nut seats, on this vehicle. Do not attempt to use present design wheels and lug nuts on past model wheel hubs. Attempted use of intermixed wheels can lead to damage to the wheel mounting system and could result in wheels coming loose. |
