INFORMATION
Subject:
Original Equipment Chrome Plated Aluminum Wheel Identification
Models:
1999 and Prior Passenger Cars and Light Duty Trucks
Chrome plated aluminum wheels have been returned to the Warranty Parts Center that are not the original equipment (OE) components.
Original equipment chrome plated aluminum wheels can be identified by either a balance weight clip retention groove (1) or a step (2) that is machined
around both of the wheel's rim flanges. The rim flanges (3) of painted original equipment aluminum wheels do not have a groove or a step.
Chrome plated aluminum wheels that do not have the wheel rim flange groove or step are aftermarket chrome plated components and are NOT
warrantable. Any aftermarket chrome wheels received by the Warranty Parts Center will be charged back to the dealership.
