25. Tires (Rotate)

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2012 Mitsubishi Lancer. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.

Rotate tires regularly to equalize tire wear and help extend tire life. Recommended tire rotation is every 12, 000 km (7, 500 miles).

Timing for the rotation may vary according to vehicle condition, road surface conditions, and individual driver's habits.

When rotating tires, check for uneven wear, damage, and wheel alignment. Abnormal wear is usually caused by incorrect tire pressure, improper wheel alignment, out-of balance wheels, or severe braking.

The first rotation is the most important, to achieve more uniform wear for all tires on the vehicle.
