Tire Rotation Recommendations - Mahidra TUV 300 Owner's Manual

WHEELS AND TYRES
Do not use a tire, wheel size or speed rating other than that
specified for your vehicle on the tire placard. Combinations of
unapproved tires and wheels may change suspension
geometric and performance characteristics, resulting in
changes to steering, handling and braking of your vehicle. This
can cause unpredictable handling, stress to steering and
suspension components. You could lose control of the vehicle
or the tire can unexpectedly fail, resulting in an accident and/or
personal injury.
Replacing original tires with tires of a different size may result
in false speedometer and odometer readings.
12.4.6 Snow Chains
Snow chains cannot be used on these tires.
In case of harsh winter driving conditions, it is recommended
using winter tires with the same specifications for better
stability, safety and performance.

12.5 Tire Rotation Recommendations

Type 1 - Applicable for all 5 Steel / 5 Alloy wheels
Tires on the front and rear axles of vehicles operate at different
loads and perform different steering, handling, and braking
functions. For these reasons, they wear at unequal rates and
develop irregular wear patterns.
Rotation will increase tread life, help to maintain mud, snow, and
wet traction levels, and contribute to a smooth, quiet ride. Follow
the recommended tire rotation frequency for your type of driving.
Type 2 – Applicable for 4 Alloy wheels and Spare wheel with Steel rim
It is recommended rotating the tires as per the "Maintenance
Schedule".
