Replacing tyres and wheels
CAUTION
l
Avoid using different size tyres from the one
listed and the combined use of different
types of tyres, as this can affect driving safe-
ty.
Refer to "Tyres and wheels" on page
11-08.
l
Even if a wheel has the same rim size and
offset as the specified type of wheel, its
shape may prevent it from being fitted cor-
rectly. We recommend you to consult a spe-
cialist before using wheels that you have.
l
On vehicles equipped with a tyre pressure
monitoring system, only MITSUBISHI
10
MOTORS Genuine wheels should be used.
Use of another type of wheel risks air leaks
and sensor damage, as it will not be possible
to install the tyre pressure sensor properly.
Refer to "Tyre pressure monitoring system
(TPMS)*" on page 6-104.

l
On vehicles equipped with the Electric park-
ing brake, 16-inch steel wheels cannot be
used because they interfere with brake parts.
Additionally, 16-inch aluminium wheels
may not be used on your vehicle depending
on their type, even if they are MITSUBISHI
MOTORS Genuine wheels.
Consult a MITSUBISHI MOTORS Author-
ized Service Point before using wheels that
you have.
l
When replacing the tyres and wheels, refer
to the tyre pressure label on the driver's door
to confirm the size of tyres that can be in-
stalled on your vehicle. If you install tyres
with a size that is not indicated on the label,
they could interfere with the brake parts.
Tyre rotation
Tyre wear varies with vehicle conditions,
road surface conditions and individual driv-
er's driving habits. To equalize the wear and
help extend tyre life, it is recommended to ro-
tate the tyres immediately after discovery of
abnormal wear, or whenever the wear differ-
ence between the front and rear tyres is rec-
ognizable.
OGKE18E1
When rotating tyres, check for uneven wear
and damage. Abnormal wear is usually
caused by incorrect tyre pressure, improper
wheel alignment, out of balance wheel, or se-
vere braking. We recommend you to have it
checked to determine the cause of irregular
tread wear.
