These wheels are more susceptible to damage due to their diameter, width and low profile tires. To avoid damage to your wheels: • Maintain proper tire pressure (see Tires in this supplement). • Do not drive your vehicle through an automated, commercial car wash due to the vehicle's low ground clearance, tire width and track. Wash your vehicle by hand, with a commercial wand, or by using a touchless commercial wash with no mechanical tracks on the floor. • When installing wheels, always torque lug nuts to specification with a torque wrench. • Inspect your wheels for damage on a regular basis. If a wheel is damaged, replace it immediately. • In the event that you encounter an abnormally harsh impact, inspect the outer diameter of your wheels, both inside and out, for damage. 11 2008 05+ Mustang (197) Supplement USA (fus)
