Changing wheel types
Consult your dealer or wheel/rim distributor before attempting any wheel
or fastener changes.
WARNING: Use only the same type and style wheels and
mounting hardware to replace original parts. Failure to do so
may result in an assembly that looks fine, but does not fit together
properly. This could possibly cause wheel or fastener failures which
could result in property damage, personal injury or death.
Note: Do not attempt to mix stud-piloted wheels or fasteners with
hub-piloted wheels or fasteners.
Note: Do not change from aluminum wheels to steel wheels or
vice-versa without changing the mounting hardware required or, with
flange-nut mounting systems, changing the hub and stud assembly.
