Chevrolet 2003 Corvette User Manual

If a Tire Goes Flat
Your Corvette has no spare tire, no tire changing
equipment and no place to store a tire.
It’s unusual for
a tire to “blow out” while you’re driving,
especially
if you maintain your tires properly. See
“Tires” in the Index.
If air goes out of a tire, it’s much
more likely to leak out slowly.
If your vehicle has Extended Mobility Tires (EMT), you
won’t need to stop on the side of the road to change
a flat tire. EMT tires can operate effectively with no air
pressure. If you drive
on a deflated EMT for 50 miles
(80 km) or less and at speeds of 55 mph (90 km/h) or
less, there is a good chance that the tire can be
repaired. Contact the nearest authorized Chevrolet or
Goodyear EMT servicing facility, as soon as possible, to
have the flat tire inspected and repaired or replaced.
For more information, see “Extended Mobility Tires” in
the Index.
Special tools and procedures are required to
service an Extended Mobility Tire
(EMT). If
these special tools and procedures aren’t used
you
or others could be injured and your
vehicle could be damaged. Always be sure the
proper tools and procedures, as described in
the service manual, are used.
To order a service manual, see “Service and Owner
Publications” in the Index.
