Tire Rotation

Tires should be rotated every
12 000 km (7,500 mi). See
Maintenance Schedule 0 346.
Tires are rotated to achieve a
uniform wear for all tires. The
first rotation is the most
important.
Anytime unusual wear is
noticed, rotate the tires as soon
as possible, check for proper tire
inflation pressure, and check for
damaged tires or wheels. If the
unusual wear continues after the
rotation, check the wheel
alignment. See When It Is Time
for New Tires 0 309 and Wheel
Replacement 0 313.
Use this rotation pattern when
rotating the tires.
Do not include the spare tire in

Tire Pressure 0 302 and Vehicle
Load Limits 0 203.
