Tire Inspection And Rotation - Cadillac 2007 DTS Owner's Manual

Tire Inspection and Rotation

Tires should be rotated every 5,000 to 8,000 miles
(8 000 to 13 000 km).
Any time you notice unusual wear, rotate your tires
as soon as possible and check wheel alignment.
Also check for damaged tires or wheels. See When
It Is Time for New Tires on page 411 and Wheel
Replacement on page 416 for more information.
The purpose of regular rotation is to achieve more
uniform wear for all tires on the vehicle. The
first rotation is the most important. See Scheduled
Maintenance on page 457.
Four-Tire Rotation Pattern
If your vehicle has a compact spare tire, it should
not be included in the tire rotation process.
Use the four-tire rotation pattern shown.
410
Five-Tire Rotation Pattern
A five-tire rotation pattern may be used for your
professional vehicle, if it has a full-size spare
tire and wheel assembly that matches the original
equipment tires and wheels in size, type and
brand. The correct five-tire rotation pattern
is shown.
After the tires have been rotated, adjust the front
and rear inflation pressures as shown on the
Tire and Loading Information label. See Loading
Your Vehicle on page 327.
