Tire rotation is essential to routine vehicle maintenance that many drivers overlook. Regular tire rotations help ensure even tread wear, optimize performance, and maximize the lifespan of your tires. Getting your tires rotated at the recommended intervals is one of the best ways to keep your vehicle running safely and efficiently on the roads of Norwood and beyond.
How Often to Rotate Tires
Tire manufacturers and automakers generally recommend rotating your tires every 5,000 to 7,500 miles. If you do a lot of driving around Mason, you may need to rotate your tires on the more frequent end of that range. You can check your vehicle's owner's manual for the specific tire rotation interval recommended for your make and model.
Having your tires rotated at the recommended mileage is especially important if you have a front-wheel drive vehicle, which places more burden on the front tires. Those living in hilly areas like Hamilton may also need more frequent rotations. If you notice signs of uneven tread wear or feel shaking or vibrating while driving, you may be due for a tire rotation even if you haven't hit the mileage mark.
Why Rotate Tires?
Your vehicle's front and rear tires wear at different rates. Front tires tend to wear more quickly on the outside edges due to the engine's weight and the stress of turning. If you live in Cincinnati and do a lot of city driving with turns and curves, your front tires may wear down even faster. Rotating tires regularly helps ensure even tread wear so you get the maximum life out of your tire set.
