On a metric stud, it would not secure the wheel and would damage the stud, which could cause the wheel to slip off and cause an accident. Be sure to reinstall the same nuts you removed or replace them with metric nuts of the same configuration. Incorrect Tire Air Pressure: Driving on tires with incorrect air pressure is dangerous. Tires with incorrect pressure could affect handling and result in an accident. Don't drive with any tires that have incorrect air pressure. When you check the regular tires' air pressure, check the spare tire, too. 5. Store the damaged tire in the trunk. Have the damaged tire repaired as soon as possible. NOTE To prevent the jack and tool from rattling, store them properly. 7-10 Form No.8T72-EA-04G
