2019–2025 Subaru Forester Tire Maintenance & Info

Regular tire rotations help ensure even tire wear, extend tire life, and maintain balanced handling. Uneven wear can lead to reduced traction, poor fuel efficiency, and a less comfortable ride. You should rotate your tires every 6,000 miles, typically at the same time as your oil change. This schedule helps prevent uneven tread wear and maximizes the longevity of your tires.

Popular Tire Sizes for 2019–2025 Subaru Forester by Trim

Tires should be replaced when they become too worn to provide proper traction and handling. Look for a tread depth below 2/32 inches, bulges, cracking, excessive wear, and consistent tire pressure issues. These signs could mean you need to shop for new tires.

Always check your owner's manual or the driver’s side door jamb for the recommended tire pressure and size specific to your model. For tire rotations, replacements, and a wide selection of quality tires, visit Firestone Complete Auto Care to help keep your Subaru Forester road-ready.
