CAUTION
Your vehicle has metric threads on
the wheel studs and nuts. Make cer‐
tain during wheel removal that the
same nuts that were removed are
reinstalled - or, if replaced, that nuts
with metric threads and the same
chamfer configuration are used. In‐
stallation of a non-metric thread nut
on a metric stud or vice-versa will
not secure the wheel to the hub
properly and will damage the stud so
that it must be replaced.

Note that most lug nuts do not have
metric
threads. Be sure to use ex‐
treme care in checking for thread
style before installing aftermarket
lug nuts or wheels. If in doubt, con‐
sult a professional workshop. Kia
recommends to consult an author‐
ized Kia dealer/service partner.
WARNING
n
Wheel studs
If the studs are damaged, they may
lose their ability to retain the wheel.
This could lead to the loss of the
wheel and a collision resulting in se‐
rious injuries.
