Change timing belt early?

My 04 Sportback has about 115k miles. Did the previous belt at 62k at the Mitsubishi dealership. Coming up on time for another belt. Should I change it before this one hits 60k?

yeah...it would probably be ok, cause I know of many cars that went 100k miles, mine included, on the first belt...inspect it at the very least...

but then you're guaranteed another 60k starting now, if you replace it, so like 2006_RA said, it's all about peace of mind...
