Why Tire Rotation is Important
Rotating your tires means moving them from front to rear or side to side. This maintenance task is critical to your tires’ performance and longevity. It may also be required to keep the tires covered under a warranty. The vehicle manufacturer will recommend how often the tires need to be rotated, but often it is around 5,000 miles. This task is often done when the oil is changed as an add-on service. When the technician rotates your tires, they take the time to look at them. A visual inspection can alert you to any damage, such as a knot or worn tread. The technician will also check air pressure and get the tires rebalanced if they need it. When tires are rotated regularly, it allows the tread to wear evenly. The tire grips the road as it should for better traction if the wear is even. How the tires wear depends on whether the vehicle is front- or rear-wheel drive or all-wheel drive. The tires that are doing the most work will wear fastest.
Rotation Patterns
Not all vehicles have their tires rotated the same way. There are several patterns that the technician can use. They will decide which one works best based on the wear pattern and drive of the vehicle. Tires are often rotated from the front to the rear and vice versa. The tires may be placed on the other side, such as is with a crisscross pattern. Often either the front or rear cross with the other set moving in a straight pattern. In an X-pattern, both front and rear wheels will cross each other. They may also switch in a direct line or move from one side to the other. In some cases, only the front or rear tires are rotated with the other set remaining in the same position.
Take Care of Your Tires
The tires on your car are important, and that’s why we want you to have the best quality tires available. Worn-out tires can become hazardous for you as the driver and others on the road. Tires with not enough tread on them can begin to slip on the road and can cause an accident or collision. If your tire pressure is low, that can cause you to blow a tire or damage your rim which can end up costing more than the tire itself. If you find that your tire pressure does become low, you’ll have to replace it with a spare tire or find the nearest air compressor and fill your tire to the designated pressure. If you’re able to leave the car parked, that would be the best idea. If you end up finding any further issues don’t hesitate to call our tire center so we can help get the issue resolved with our technicians.
