Tire Inspection and Rotation
Tires should be inspected every 6,000 to 8,000 miles
(10 000 to 13 000 km) for any signs of unusual wear. If
unusual wear is present, rotate your tires as soon as
possible and check wheel alignment. Also check for
damaged tires or wheels. See "When it's Time for New
Tires" and "Wheel Replacement" later in this section 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 Services" in the Index for scheduled
rotation intervals.
When rotating your tires, always
use the correct
rotation
pattern shown here.
After the tires have been rotated, adjust the front and rear
inflation pressures as shown on the Tire-Loading
Information label. Make certain that all wheel nuts are
properly tightened. See "Wheel Nut Torque" in the Index.
