Wheel
Alignment
and
Tire
Balance
The
wheels
on
your
vehicle
were
aligned
and
balanced
carefully
at
the
factory
to
give
you
the
longest
tire
life
and
best
overall
performance.
In
most
cases, you
will
not
need
to
have
your
wheels
aligned
again.
However,
if
you notice
unusual
tire
wear or your
vehicle
pulling
one
way or the
other,
the
alignment
may
need
to be
reset.
If
you
notice
your
vehicle
vibrating
when
driving
on
a
smooth
road,
your
wheels
may
need
to
be
rebalanced.
Wheel

any
wheel
thatis
bent,
cracked
or badly
rusted.
If
wheel
nuts
keep
coming
loose,
the
wheel,
wheel
bolts,
and
wheel
nuts
should
be
replaced.
If
the
wheel
leaks
air out, replace
it
(except
some
aluminum
wheels,
which
can
sometimes
be
repaired).
See
your
Oldsmobile
dealer
if
any
of these
conditions
exist.
Your dealer
will
know
what
kind
of
wheel
you
need.
Each
new
wheel
should
have
the
same
load
carrying
capacity,
diameter,
width,
offset,
and
be
mounted
the
same
way as
the
one
it replaces.
If
you
need
to
replace
any
of
your
wheels,
wheel
bolts, or wheel
nuts,
replace
them
only
with
new
GM
original
equipment
parts.
This
way,
will
be
sure
you
have
the
right
whee
:1,
wheel
bolts,
and
wheel nuti for
your
Oldsmobile.
r
A
Using the wrong
replacement
wheels,
wheel
bolts, or wheel
nuts
on
your
vehicle
can
be
dangerous.
It
could
affect
the
braking
and
handling
of
your
vehicle,
make
your
tires
lose
air
and
make
you
lose
control. You
could
have
a
collision
in
which
you
or others
could
be
injured.
Always
use
the
correct
wheel,
wheel
bolts,
and
wheel
nuts
for
replacement.
