Tires
To clean the tires, use a stiff brush

tire dressing products on the
vehicle may damage the paint
finish and/or tires. When applying
a tire dressing, always wipe off
any overspray from all painted

material to parts repaired or
replaced to restore corrosion
protection.
Original manufacturer replacement

protection while maintaining the
vehicle warranty.
