y Abnormally high tire pressure (tread

worn in center)

Ride comfort is poor. Also, the tire magni-

fies the effects of road-surface bumps and

dips, possibly resulting in vehicle damage.

 Wheel balance

Each wheel was correctly balanced when

your vehicle was new, but the wheels will

become unbalanced as the tires become

worn during use. Wheel imbalance caus-

es the steering wheel to vibrate slightly at

certain vehicle speeds and detracts from

the vehicle’s straight-line stability. It can

also cause steering and suspension sys-

tem problems and abnormal tire wear. If

you suspect that the wheels are not cor-

rectly balanced, have them checked and

adjusted by your SUBARU dealer. Also

have them adjusted after tire repairs and

after tire rotation.

Loss of correct wheel alignment* caus-

es the tires to wear on one side and re-

duces the vehicle’s running stability.

Contact your SUBARU dealer if you no-

tice abnormal tire wear.

*: The suspension system is designed to hold

each wheel at a certain alignment (relative to

the other wheels and to the road) for optimum

straight-line stability and cornering perfor-

mance.

 Wear indicators

1) New tread

2) Worn tread

3) Tread wear indicator

Each tire incorporates a tread wear indica-

tor, which becomes visible when the depth

of the tread grooves decreases to 0.071 in

(1.8 mm). A tire must be replaced when

the tread wear indicator appears as a solid

band across the tread.

Driving at high speeds with exces-

sively low tire pressures can cause

the tires to deform severely and to

rapidly become hot. A sharp in-

crease in temperature could cause

tread separation, and destruction of

the tires. The resulting loss of vehi-

cle control could lead to an acci-

dent.
