- Rotating the tires on a vehicle extends the life of the tires and ensures safer handling.
- Tires should be rotated every 5,000 to 10,000 miles, or as recommended by your vehicle's owner's manual.
- Rotating a vehicle's tires evens out the wear between the front and back tires (front tires wear out faster), so that your tires don't wear out prematurely.
- Not all tires can be rotated from side to side and front to back. Follow the recommendations set forth by the tire manufacturer.
- If you decide to do the job yourself, be sure to secure the car with jack stands.
- When you rotate your tires, take a few extra minutes to check the pressure of each tire, measure the tread and look for unusual wear.
