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
installed 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 (i
f so equipped) can be
installed temporarily in place of a tire that has been removed duri
ng the tire rotation.
However, it must not be included in the regu- lar tire rotation sequence.Tires that do not have arrows showing rotation direction Front Tires that have arrows
showing rotation direc-
tion Front
CAUTION If the tires have arrows (A) indicating the correct direction of rotation, swap the frontand rear tires on the left-hand side of thevehicle 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 performance and safety.

Snow tires
CAUTION If your vehicle is equipped with a tire pres- sure monitoring system, only Mitsubishi Motors Authorized wheels should be used.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.
Tire chains
CAUTION Tire chains cannot be
used on your vehicle.
The clearance between the chains and thebody is not sufficient
to allow proper clear-
ance, and the vehicle body might be dam- aged.
