Subaru Crosstrek Owners Manual: Tire care - maintenance and safety practices
- Check on a daily basis that the tires are free from serious damage, nails, and stones. At the same time, check the tires for abnormal wear
- Inspect the tire tread regularly
and replace the tires before their
tread wear indicators become visible.
When a tire's tread wear indicator becomes visible, the tire is worn beyond the acceptable limit and must be replaced immediately.
With a tire in this condition, driving at even low speeds in wet weather can cause the vehicle to hydroplane.
Possible resulting loss of vehicle control can lead to an accident.
- To maximize the life of each tire
and ensure that the tires wear
uniformly, it is best to rotate the
tires every 7,500 miles (12,000 km).
For information about the tire rotation order, refer to "Tire rotation" F11-26. Replace any damaged or unevenly worn tires at the time of rotation. After tire rotation, adjust the tire pressures and make sure the wheel nuts are correctly tightened.
For information about the tightening torque and tightening sequence for the wheel nuts, refer to "Flat tires" F9-5.
