June 10, 200520 yr When replacing tires on a conventional 4WD, I understand the importance of replacing all four tires with identical units. I'd like to know if the same holds true of Subie 4WD systems. Obviously, they must all be the same size, but if two are worn and two not so badly, is it OK to replace the two worn tires with tires of the same size, or should all four be replaced at the same time?
June 10, 200520 yr It's recromended to replace all four and to rotate them frequently to maintain a uniform diameter.
June 10, 200520 yr The dealer told me that they recommend only 3/32'nd tread difference between the tires. hope that NC is treating you well... Now's the time to be in Inlet, winter's gone, and the "Water Safari" is open and the tourists are all flocking back... Maybe you're better off in NC... Good Luck to you...
June 12, 200520 yr Author Actually, I AM in Inlet. Probably be here until first part of July, have a little cutting to be done on me at the Syracuse VA. They started the process quite some time ago, and I want to stick with them till it's done. Thats why I was asking about the tires, I'd like to get some new skins on the rig before heading back south. I'm afraid I was lax at keeping them rotated. Fronts pretty worn, rears pretty good.
