The following maintenance steps are recom- mended: Check tire pressures regularly. Have regular maintenance done on the wheel balance and front
and rear suspen-
sion alignment. Rotate your tires regularly as described in the “Tire rotation” se
ction on page 9-21.

Tread wear indicators are built into the origi- nal equipment tires on your vehicle to help you know when your tires should be replaced.
Many states have la
ws requiring that you
replace your tires at this point.These indicators are molded into the bottom of the tread grooves and will appear when the tire tread is worn down to 1/16 inch (1.6mm). When the bands appear next to one another in two or more places
, replace your tires.

To even out the wear on your tires and make them last longer, Mitsubishi Motors Corpora-tion recommends that you rotate your tires at the mileage listed in the “WARRANTY AND MAINTENANCE MANUAL”.However, the timing for tire rotation may vary according to your vehicle condition, road surface conditions, and your own per-sonal driving habits. Any time you notice unusual wear, rotate your
tires as soon as pos-
sible. When rotating tires, check for uneven wear, damage, and wheel al
ignment. Abnormal
wear is usually caused by a wrong tire pres-
On all-wheel drive vehi
cles, always use tires
of the same size, same
type, and same brand,
and which have no wear differences. Usingtires that differ in si
ze, type, brand or the
degree of wear, will increase the differential oil temperature, resulting in possible damageto the driving system. Further, the drive train will be subjected to ex
cessive loading, possi-
bly leading to oil leakage, component sei-zure, or other serious problems. Only Mitsubishi Motors Authorized wheels should be used, beca
use your vehicle is
equipped with a tire pr
essure monitoring sys-
tem.Use of another type of wheel risks air leaks and sensor damage, as it
will not be possible
to install the tire pressure sensor properly.NOTE
On vehicles with Elec
tric parking brake, 16
inches steel wheel cannot be used on yourvehicle because it interferes with brake parts. Additionally, 16 inches aluminum wheel may not be used on
your vehicle depending
on its type, even if a Mitsubishi Motors Gen-uine wheels. Consult an authoriz
ed Mitsubishi Motors
dealer before using wh
eels that you have.

sure, wheels that ar
e not aligned properly,
wheels that are out-of-balance, or severebraking. Check with an author
ized Mitsubishi Motors
dealer or a repair facility of your choice tofind out the reason for uneven tread wear. The first tire rotation is the most important one. It will allow all your
tires to wear evenly.

In some areas of the country, snow tires are required for winter driving. If snow tires are required in your area, you must choose snowtires of the same size
and type as the original
tires provided with your vehicle. Snow tires should also be installe
d on all four wheels.
Otherwise your safety and vehicle handling can be reduced. Even where laws may permit it, snow tires should not be operated
at sustained speeds
over 75 mph (120 km/h).
CAUTION A compact spare tire can be installed tempo- rarily in place of a tire
that has been removed
during the tire rotation. However, it must not be included in the re
gular tire rotation
sequence.

howing rotation direction

If the tires have arrows (A) indicating the correct direction of ro
tation, swap the front
and rear tires on the le
ft-hand side of the
vehicle and the front
and rear tires on the
right-hand side of th
e vehicle separately.
Keep each tire on its original side of thevehicle. When installing the tires, make sure the arrows point in the
direction in which the
wheels will turn when the vehicle moves for-ward. Any tire whose arrow points in the wrong direction will not
perform to its full
potential.CAUTION Avoid the combined use of different types of tires. Using different t
ypes of tires can affect
vehicle performa
nce and safety.
