Tire rotation<\/a> is a must for regular tire and auto maintenance.<\/h2>\n

Getting your tires rotated helps with even tread wear, ultimately making your tires last longer and saving you money. Tires can be rotated diagonally or right to left, front to back. Directional and asymmetrical tires are rotated differently. No matter the tires you have, tire rotation will give you a smoother ride and better handling. The front tires typically wear out faster because they carry the most weight. Knowing when to have them rotated can save you money and the headache of prematurely buying new tires. There are few different options when it comes to the timeline of your tire rotation.<\/p>\n

Check Your Owner’s Manual<\/h3>\n

Your owner’s manual is the best way to figure out when you should rotate your tires. Most manuals will suggest however many miles or months they should be changed. Go with whatever comes first. Tire rotation varies with the car manufacturer, so always check with the owner’s manual.<\/p>\n

Oil Changes<\/a><\/h3>\n

An easy way to remember tire rotation is getting it done with an oil change. Again, this also depends on what kind of vehicle you have. Most manufacturers say to rotate your tires every 5,000 to 8,000 miles. Oil changes are usually done with a little less mileage, but it won’t hurt to have your tires rotated.<\/p>\n

Signs of Uneven Tread Wear<\/h3>\n

If you notice uneven tread wear, you need to have your car checked out. You may simply need to have tire rotation done. However, uneven tread wear can also be a sign of misalignment or tire imbalance. Check with an auto tech at the local Blain’s Farm & Fleet near you<\/a> to make sure it’s not a more serious problem than just a simple tire rotation.<\/p>\n
