Subaru Outback (BR): Aluminum wheels
Aluminum wheels can be scratched and damaged easily. Handle them carefully to
maintain their appearance, performance, and safety.
● When any of the wheels is removed and replaced for tire rotation or to change
a flat, always check the tightness of the wheel nuts after driving approximately
600 miles (1,000 km). If any nut is loose, tighten it to the specified torque.
● Never apply oil to the threaded parts, wheel nuts, or tapered surface of the
wheel.
● Never let the wheel rub against sharp protrusions or curbs.
● When wheel nuts, balance weights, or the center cap is replaced, be sure to
replace them with genuine SUBARU parts designed for aluminum wheels.
