Pontiac G8 TIRE PRESSURES
Check the inflation pressure of each tire, including the spare tire, at least monthly and
inflate to the recommended pressure for your vehicle.
The tire pressures recommended for your vehicle are found on the “Tire and Loading
Information” label located on the driver’s side door opening.

WARNING!
Overloading of your Pontiac G8 tires is dangerous. Overloading can cause tire failure, affect
vehicle handling, and increase your stopping distance. Use tires of the recommended
load capacity for your vehicle. Never overload them.
WARNING!
Improperly inflated Pontiac G8 tires are dangerous and can cause accidents. Under-inflation is
the leading cause of tire failure and may result in severe cracking, component
separation, or “blow out”. Over-inflation reduces a tire’s ability to cushion shock.
Objects on the road and chuck holes can cause damage that results in tire failure.
Unequal tire pressures can cause steering problems. You could lose control of your
vehicle. Over-inflated or under-inflated tires can affect your Pontiac G8's handling and can fail
suddenly, resulting in loss of vehicle control.


Pontiac G8 WHEEL AND WHEEL TRIM CARE
All Pontiac G8 wheels and wheel trim, especially aluminum and chrome plated wheels, should be
cleaned regularly with a mild soap and water to prevent corrosion.
To remove heavy soil and/or excessive brake dust, Pontiac G8 Wheel Cleaner or
equivalent or select a non-abrasive, non-acidic cleaner.
CAUTION!
Do not use scouring pads, steel wool, a bristle brush, or metal polishes. Do not use
oven cleaner. These products may damage the wheel's protective finish. Avoid
automatic car washes that use acidic solutions or harsh brushes that may damage the
wheel's protective finish. Only Pontiac G8 Wheel Cleaner or equivalent is recommended.


WARNING!
Raising the Pontiac G8 higher than necessary can make the vehicle less stable and cause
an accident. It could slip off the jack and hurt someone near it. Raise the Pontiac G8 only
enough to remove the tire.

At Least Once a Month check your Pontiac G8's Tire Inflation
Inspect the vehicle’s tires and make sure they are inflated to the correct
pressures. Do not forget to check the spare tire, if the vehicle has one. If the vehicle has a spare tire, check to make sure it is stored
securely.

How to Check your Pontiac G8's Tire Inflation
Use a good quality pocket-type gage to check tire pressure.
You can’t tell if your tires are properly inflated simply by
looking at them. Radial tires may look properly inflated even when they’re underinflated.
Check the tire’s inflation pressure when the tires are cold. Cold means your Pontiac G8 has been sitting for at least three
hours or driven no more than 1 mile (1.6 km). Remove the valve cap from the
tire valve stem. Press the tire gage firmly onto the valve to get a pressure measurement.
If the cold tire inflation pressure matches the recommended pressure on the Pontiac G8 Tire and
Loading Information label, no further adjustment is necessary.
If the inflation pressure is low, add air until you reach the
recommended amount.If you overfill the Pontiac G8 tire, release air
by pushing on the metal stem in the center of the tire
valve. Recheck the tire pressure with the tire gage.
Be sure to put the valve caps back on the valve stems.
They help prevent leaks by keeping out dirt and moisture

Pontiac G8 Tire Wear Inspection
Tire rotation may be required for high mileage highway drivers prior to
the Engine Oil Life System service notification. Check the tires for
wear and, if necessary, rotate the tires

CAUTION
Driving your Pontiac G8 at high speeds, 100 mph
(160 km/h) or higher, puts an additional strain on tires. Sustained
high-speed driving causes excessive heat build up and can
cause sudden tire failure. You could have a crash and you or
others could be killed. Some high-speed rated tires require
inflation pressure adjustment for high speed operation. When speed
limits and road conditions are such that a vehicle can be driven at high
speeds, make sure the tires are rated for high speed operation, in excellent condition, and set to the
correct cold tire inflation pressure
for your Pontiac G8's load.
