Subaru Outback (BR): Tires and towing
Do not attempt to tow a trailer using the temporary spare tire. The temporary spare tire is not designed to handle the towing load and using it for towing can lead to tire failure or reduced vehicle stability.
Ensure that all tires on your vehicle are properly inflated. Please refer to the "Tires" section in this manual and the "GAS STATION REFERENCE" at the end of the manual for detailed information.
When towing a trailer, ensure that the trailer tires are in good condition, correctly sized, have the appropriate load rating, and are inflated to the proper pressure according to the trailer manufacturer's specifications.
If your vehicle experiences a flat tire while towing a trailer, contact a professional road service to repair the tire.
If you carry a full-size spare tire in your vehicle or trailer as a precaution against flat tires, ensure that the spare tire is securely fastened in place.
