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

To even out the wear on your tires and makethem last longer, Mitsubishi Motors Corpora- tion recommends that you rotate your tires at the mileage listed in the “WARRANTY ANDMAINTENANCE 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 alignment. Abnormal wear is usually caused by a wrong tire pres-
sure, wheels that are not aligned properly, wheels that are out-of-balance, or severe braking. Check with an authorized Mitsubishi Motorsdealer or a repair faci
lity of your choice to
find 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.
