To even out the wear on your tires and make them last longer, Mitsubishi Motors Corpora- tion recommends that y
ou rotate your tires at
the mileage listed in the “WARRANTY AND MAINTENANCE MANUAL”. However, the timing for tire rotation mayvary 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 ar
e not aligned properly,
wheels that are out-of-balance, or severe braking. Check with an author
ized Mitsubishi Motors
dealer or a repair facility 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.

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 tiresshould 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. 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 the vehicle. When installing the tires, make surethe arrows point in the
direction in which the
wheels will turn when the vehicle moves for- ward. Any tire whose arrow points in thewrong direction will not
perform to its full
potential.
