A major benefit to your vehicle’s health and longevity is regular tire rotations and maintenance. During a rotation, your tires are moved from one position on the car to another. The process involves moving the front tires to the rear, and the rear tires to the front. It’s usually done in a cross-diagonal direction, so they’ll also change sides. A tire rotation prevents uneven wear and helps prolong their lifespan.
It’s best practice to have your tires rotated during your oil change service. If you need suggestions on the best oil change schedule, check your owner’s manual or give us a call. Our technicians would be happy to check your oil and suggest the best time for your next service.
Your tires serve an essential purpose because they’re the only aspect of your vehicle that makes direct contact with the road. Well maintained tires are a must since they influence how your vehicle brakes and handles. A scheduled tire rotation offers you the opportunity to have your tire pressure, alignment, and thread depth thoroughly inspected.
What are the benefits of regular tire rotations?
Increased Tire Lifespan:
Tires that are not regularly rotated will cause your tires to wear unevenly. This can lead to a decrease in tire performance and an impact on its ability to create traction with the road. Worn tires are unstable and dangerous. Tire rotations are relatively inexpensive and can extend the life of your tires in the long run.
Enhanced Fuel Efficiency
Worn tires force your vehicle to work harder, putting a massive strain on your engine. As a result, your car will consume more fuel. Regular tire rotations help your vehicle drive more efficiently; this decreases the amount of gas it takes to power it down the road.
Maximize Tire Performance
Vehicle performance and tire performance work hand in hand. Tire rotations provide a smoother ride that extends the life of your tires.
Savings
If your tire life is extended, you save hundreds of dollars in tire replacement and costly repairs caused by worn tires. You’ll also be saving extra money on fuel costs.
Safety
Tires that are regularly rotated promote a safe driving experience - an experience in which your tires handle and brake effortlessly if you need to maneuver in an emergency suddenly.
