Recommended Every 10,000 Miles or Once a Year
Rotation of all four tires to even our tire tread wear and maximize tire life.
One of the best ways to avoid unplanned expenses or accidents in your car is to care for your tires properly. If your tires are wearing unevenly, you could experience blowouts or tires that are unsafe in severe weather. Rotating your tires is an important service that should be done to your tires at least every 10,000 miles or once a year. A tire rotation can help your tires wear evenly and last longer.
How a vehicle’s tires are rotated depends mostly on which of the tires undergoes the most stress. For front-wheel drive vehicles, the front wheels wear out faster. To rotate the tires on a front-wheel-drive car, the front wheels are moved directly to the back, while the back tires are crossed and moved to the front. AWD vehicles wear a little differently. However, generally, there is a tire that wears more than others. AWD vehicle tires are rotated by moving the rear wheels to the same side on the front, while the front wheels are crossed and moved to the back.
If left in the same position for too many miles, a driver could find out that they have two bald tires and two good tires. Proper tire rotation is critical in lengthening your tires’ life and ensuring the best safety on the road. As tires are rotated, they all wear together at the same rate. This uniform wearing of your tire tread helps drivers plan for their next tire purchases, and it provides maximum use of the tires on their vehicle. Neglecting to rotate your tires can put unneeded stress on your wallet and your car.
Proper maintenance of your tires helps provide a smooth and quiet ride. Also, the better your tires run on the road can also help your vehicle’s fuel economy. Many times, tire problems can lead to more severe damage or accidents. Tire rotations help prolong tire life, and therefore, it allows drivers to be safer on the road. Irregular wear on tires can also lead to irregular wear on your brakes. Tire rotations also help other systems in your car last longer.
