Tires and Wheels

Maintenance and Service11
– CONTINUED –
After driving approximately 600
miles (1,000 km), check the wheel
nuts again and retighten any nut
that has become loose.■ Tire ReplacementThe wheels and tires are important and
integral parts of your vehicle’s design;
they cannot be changed arbitrarily. The
tires fitted as standard equipment are opti-
mally matched to the characteristics of the
vehicle and were sele cted to give the best
possible combination of running perfor-
mance, ride comfort, and service life. It is
essential for every tire to have a size and
construction matching those shown on the
tire inflation pressure label and to have a
speed symbol and load index matching
those shown on the tire inflation pressure
label.
Using tires of a non-specified size detracts
from controllability, ride comfort, braking
performance, speedometer accuracy and
odometer accuracy. It also creates incor-
rect body-to-tire clearances and inappro-
priately changes the vehicle’s ground
clearance.
All four tires must be the same in terms of
manufacturer, brand (tread pattern),
construction, and size. You are advised to
replace the tires with new ones that are identical to those fitted as standard equip-
ment.
For safe vehicle operation, SUBARU
recommends replacing all four tires at the
same time.
■ Wheel ReplacementWhen replacing wheels due, for example,
to damage, make sure the replacement
wheels match the specifications of the
wheels that are fitted as standard equip-
ment. Replacement wheels are available
from SUBARU dealers.
WARNING
When replacing or installing
tire(s), all four tires must be the
same for the following items.
(a) Size(b) Speed symbol(c) Load index(d) Circumference(e) Construction(f) Manufacturer(g) Brand (tread pattern)(h) Degrees of wearFor items (a) to (c), you must
obey the specification that is
printed on the tire inflation pres-
sure label. The tire inflation pres-
sure label is located on the
driver’s center pillar.
If all four tires are not the same in
items (a) to (h), serious mechani-
cal damage could be caused to
the drivetrain of the car, and
affect the followings.-Ride-Handling-Braking- Speedometer/Odometer cali- bration- Clearance between the body
and the tires
It also may be dangerous and
lead to loss of vehicle control,
and it can lead to an accident.
Use only radial tires. Do not use
radial tires together with belted
bias tires and/or bias-ply tires.
Doing so can dangerously reduce
controllability, resulting in an
accident.
