Why Do I Need To Rotate My Tires?
Tires
need to be rotated to even tire wear front-to-back and side-to-side.
When you drive, your tires wear in a certain way depending on which side
of the car they are on, the roads you're driving on, and the weather
you drive in. Tire rotation helps even out the wear on the tires, making
them last longer and keeping you safer on the road. It's important to
rotate the tires even if they are not showing signs of wear, as the
changes might be too small to notice with just your eyes. Also, when
rotating your tires, the technicians can check the tires for any
improper inflation issues or other major
concerns.
Should I Rotate My Tires Based On The Season?
Always follow the
recommended guidelines from tire companies about how often you should
rotate your tires, as the distances can vary based on the type of tire.
However, it's important on front-wheel-drive cars to make sure that the
front tires don't get too much wear and tear as they control the power
from the engine, the steering, and 70-80% of the braking. Before winter
or the wet season it's important to make sure these tires are ready, and
a good way to do that is to get them rotated and inspected by one of
our
technicians.
What Kind Of Tire Rotation Do I Need?
There
are a couple of tire rotation patterns, depending on your style of car
and tires. The pattern of rotation depends on whether you have a
front-wheel-drive car, if the tires are non-directional, if the tires
are the same size, and if the car or truck is 4-wheel or
all-wheel-drive. It can also be good to rotate the spare tire, assuming
that it exactly matches the size and direction of the other four tires
on the vehicle. Our service technicians can help find the right pattern
for you and get you back on the road in no
time!
