Tire wear varies from wheel to
wheel. Move the tires to the posi-
tions shown in the illustration each
time they are rotated. For the tire
rotation schedule, refer to the
“Warranty and Maintenance
Booklet”.
Replace any damaged or unevenly
worn tire at the time of rotation. After
tire rotation, adjust the tire pres-
sures and make sure the wheel nuts
are correctly tightened.

After driving approximately 600
miles (1,000 km), check the wheel
nuts again and retighten any nut
that has become loose.■
Tire Replacement
The 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 selected 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 Replacement
When 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 bodyand 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.

Alloy Wheels
366NOTEWhen any of the wheels are removed
and replaced for tire rotation or to
change a flat tire, always check the
tightness of the wheel nuts after driv-
ing approximately 600 miles (1,000
km). If any nut is loose, tighten it to the
specified torque.
11-22. Alloy WheelsAlloy wheels can be scratched and
damaged easily. Handle them carefully to
maintain their appearance, performance,
and safety.
 When any of the wheels is removed
and replaced for tire rotation or to change
a flat, always check the tightness of the
wheel nuts after driving approximately 600
miles (1,000 km). If any nut is loose,
tighten it to the specified torque.
 Never apply oil to the threaded parts,
wheel nuts, or tapered surface of the
wheel.
 Never let the wheel rub against sharp
protrusions or curbs.
 When wheel nuts, balance weights, or
the center cap is replaced, be sure to
replace them with genuine SUBARU parts
designed for alloy wheels.
11-23. Windshield WasherFluid1) “LOW” positionThe washer fluid level can be checked by
observing the position of the level on the
liquid-covered holes in the gauge.
If the level falls below the second hole
from the bottom (the “LOW” position), add
washer fluid.
Use windshield washer fluid. If windshield
washer fluid is unavailable use clean
water.
In areas where water freezes in winter,
use an anti-freeze type windshield washer
fluid.
WARNING
Use only those wheels that are
specified for your vehicle. Wheels
not meeting specifications could
interfere with brake caliper opera-
tion and may cause the tires to rub
against the wheel well housing
during turns. The resulting loss of
vehicle control could lead to an
accident.

For U.S.A.
39413-1. For U.S.A.The following information has been
compiled according to Code of Federal
Regulations “Title 49, Part 575”.
13-2. Tire Information■Tire LabelingMany markings (e.g . Tire size, Tire
Identification Number or TIN) are
placed on the sidewall of a tire by
tire manufacturers. These marking
can provide you with useful informa-
tion on the tire.
▼ Tire size
Your vehicle comes equipped with
P-Metric tire size. It is important to
understand the sizing system in
selecting the proper tire for your
vehicles. Here is a brief review of
the tire sizing system with a break-
down of its individual elements.
▽ P Metric
With the P-Metric system, Section
Width is measured in millimeters.
To convert millimeters into inches,
divide by 25.4. The Aspect Ratio
(Section Height divided by Section
Width) helps provide more dimen-
sional information about the tire
size. Example:
(1) P = Certain tire type used on
light duty vehicles such as
passenger cars
(2) Section Width in millimeters
(3) Aspect Ratio (= section height ÷
section width).
(4) R = Radial Construction
(5) Rim diameter in inches
▽
Load and Speed Rating Descrip-
tions
The load and speed rating descrip-
tions will appear following the size
designation.
They provide two important facts
about the tire. First, the number
designation is its load index.
Second, the letter designation indi-
cates the tire’s speed rating.Example:
P 205 / 60 R 16(1)
(2) (3) (4) (5)
P 205 / 60 R 16 91 V

(6) Load Index: A numerical code
which specifies the maximum load a
tire can carry at the speed indicated
by its speed symbol, at maximum
inflation pressure.
For example, “
91” means 1,356 lbs
(615 kg), “90” means 1,323 lbs (600 kg),
“89
” means 1,279 lbs (580 kg)
(7) Speed Rating: An alphabetical
system describing a tire’s capability
to travel at established and prede-
termined speeds.
For example, “
V” means 149 mph
(240 km/h) ▼
Tire Identification Number
(TIN)
Tire Identification Number (TIN) is
marked on the intended outboard
sidewall. The TIN is composed of
four groups. Here is a brief review of
the TIN with a breakdown of its indi-
vidual elements. (1) DOT symbol*
(2) Manufacturer’s Identification
Mark
(3) Tire Size Code
(4) Tire Type Code
(5) Date of Manufacture
The first two figures identify the
week, starting with “
01” to represent
the first full week of the calendar
year; the second two figures repre-
sent the year. For example, 0101
means the 1st week of 2001.
*: The DOT symbol certifies that the tire conforms to applicable
Federal Motor Vehicle Safety
Standards.
▼ Other markings
The following makings are also
placed on the sidewall.
WARNING
Load indices apply only to the
tire, not to the vehicle. Putting
a load rated tire on any vehicle
does not mean the vehicle can
be loaded up to the tire’s rated
load.
WARNING
 Speed ratings apply only to
the tire, not to the vehicle.
Putting a speed rated tire on
any vehicle does not mean
the vehicle can be operated
at the tire’s rated speed.The speed rating is void if
the tires are worn out,
damaged, repaired,
retreaded, or otherwise
altered from their original
condition. If tires are
repaired, retreaded, or other-
wise altered, they may not be
suitable for original equip-
ment tire designed loads and
speeds.
