2008 Chevrolet Aveo Alloy Wheels

The proper way is to clean the rim bead seats with a wire brush or coarse steel wool to remove lubricants, old rubber, and light rust. Before mounting or dismounting a tire, lubricate the bead area well with an approved tire lubricant, and inflate it until the beads are seated. Never exceed 275 kPa (40 psi) to seat the beads, and then install the valve core and inflate the tire to the proper pressure.

You should use a tire changing machine to dismount tires. You should not use hand tools or tire irons alone to remove the tire from the wheel.

The proper way is to clean the wheel by sanding it to bare alloy where the wheel weight will be installed, use a clean cloth or paper towel saturated with a mixture of half isopropyl alcohol and half water to wipe the place where the wheel weight will be installed, dry the area with hot air, warm the adhesive backing on the wheel weights to room temperature, remove the tape from the back of the weights, apply the wheel weight and press it on with hand pressure, and then secure the wheel weight with a 70-110 N (16-25 lb) force applied with a roller.

The proper way is to rotate the wheel clockwise and push down on the tire to move the bottom bead to the inside of the wheel rim, rotate the wheel counter-clockwise and push down on the tire to move the top bead to the inside of the wheel rim, install the valve core to the valve stem, inflate the tire to the specification listed on the tire placard, and then install the tire and wheel assembly to the vehicle.

The proper way is to remove the tire and wheel assembly from the vehicle, remove the valve core from the valve stem, position the bead breaking fixture 90°, 180°, and 270° from the valve stem, insert the tire iron pry bar, and then use a wire brush or coarse steel wool to remove any rubber, light rust, or corrosion from the wheel bead seats.
