Did You Know: The tires on your car wear at immensely different rates. Therefore rotating them on a regular schedule is your best defense to prevent the need to replace them early. A general guide to follow is to have them rotated every 5,000 miles or so.
When Should You Rotate Your Tires?
A general rule of thumb is to rotate your tires every 5,000 - 6,000 miles (although your driving style and vehicle type should also be taken into consideration). Your tires will perform better and last longer if you rotate the front and rear tires.
Tire tread wears down over time. As a result of the natural functioning of your vehicle, your tread can wear unevenly. You could be in for a dangerous situation if one or more of your tires becomes bald before the others.
It is possible for worn tires to cause:
- Blowouts
- Tire noise
- Wheel vibration
- Diminished performance
- Hydroplaning
