Tire Rotation

Description

Tires on the front and rear operate at different loads and perform different steering, driving, and braking functions.
For these reasons they wear at unequal rates and tend to develop irregular wear patterns. These effects can be
reduced by rotating the tires at regular intervals.
The benefits of tire rotation are:
• Increase tread life
• Maintain traction levels
• A smooth, quiet ride
