Tyre rotation is a crucial part of your vehicle's maintenance routine. It helps ensure even wear across all four tyres, improving performance and safety and extending their lifespan.
What Is Tyre Rotation?
Tyre rotation involves moving the tires from one position to another on your vehicle, typically switching the front tyres with the rear ones. This process ensures that the tyres wear evenly, as each position on the car (front, back, left, right) experiences different pressure and wear patterns.
Why Is Tyre Rotation Important?
Even Tyre Wear
Regular rotation ensures that no tyre wears out faster than the others, promoting uniform tread wear. This helps improve traction, handling, and safety.
Improved Fuel Consumption
Properly rotated tyres help your car handle better, which can improve fuel efficiency. Uneven tyre wear can make the vehicle more challenging to control, leading to higher fuel consumption.
Extended Tyre Life
Rotating your tyres regularly can help extend their lifespan, saving you money on premature replacements.
Safer Driving
Uneven tyre wear can cause your car to pull to one side, making it harder to steer and increasing the likelihood of accidents. Regular rotations keep the vehicle balanced and stable.
How Often Should You Rotate Your Tyres?
Most experts recommend rotating your tyres every 10,000 km, or as your car's owner manual suggests. If you're unsure, check with us.
