WHEEL INSTALLATION, CARE & MAINTENENCE

Inspect your new wheels thoroughly, and report shipping damage or defects prior to

mounting tires. Returns will not be accepted after tires have been mounted to your

wheels.

TIRE MOUNTING AND BALANCING

1. Have your tires mounted at a reputable tire service center. Be sure the shop uses

modern equipment. Tire mounting machines should have plastic “duck heads” to prevent

marring the finish of your wheels

2. AEV wheels are compatible with your factory Tire Pressure Monitoring (TPM) rubber

valve stems. If you do not have TPM, use the short style 1-1/2 inch long valve stems

3. The shop must have modern balancing equipment that utilizes “pin plates” to secure the

front of the wheel in the lug holes. NEVER use “cones” to hold the wheel in the center

cap area. This will result in a improperly balanced wheel and will most likely damage the

clear coat, paint, or chrome finish

4. Remove center caps by pushing them out from the back side of the wheel using the

handle of a screwdriver or similar blunt tool. Never pry center caps from the outside as

this will likely damage the finish of the wheel

5. Dynamic “twin plane” balancing method should be used to guarantee a true balance.

Never static balance your wheels. Use coated MC type “yellow” clip on weights and/or

tape weights for best corrosion resistance and appearance

INSTALLATION

1. Install lug nuts using a 19mm thin wall deep well socket.

2. Never use an impact wrench to tighten lug nuts.

CARE AND MAINTENENCE

1. To ensure a long lasting finish and to protect from pre mature wear, clean your wheels

regularly. If you live in areas where salt and chemicals are used on the roads, it is very

important to wash your wheels every week. Mild soap and a soft brush works best.

Avoid harsh cleaners with abrasives.

2. After cleaning, protect the finish using a high quality Carnuba car wax, or wheel wax.
