Tire Inspection And Rotation - GMC Yukon Denalid 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 497
and Wheel Replacement on page 503 for
more information.
Make sure the spare tire is stored securely.
Push, pull, and then try to rotate or turn the tire.
If it moves, use the ratchet/wheel wrench to tighten
the cable. See Changing a Flat Tire on page 506.
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 551.

tire and loading information label. See Loading
Your Vehicle on page 392 and Inflation - Tire
Pressure on page 488, for more information.
