Tire Rotation & Balancing

Extend Your Tire Life by Thousands of Miles

Tires don’t wear evenly. Front tires handle steering and absorb more impact, while rear tires follow along for the ride. Regular rotation ensures even wear, saving you money and keeping you safe.

Why Rotate Your Tires?

• Even tread wear – All four tires last the same amount of time
• Better handling – Consistent grip on all corners
• Improved fuel economy – Balanced tires reduce rolling resistance
• Maintained warranty – Most tire warranties require regular rotation
• Safer driving – Predictable performance in all conditions

Rotation Patterns

Front-Wheel Drive

Front tires move straight to the rear. Rear tires cross to the front.

Rear-Wheel Drive

Rear tires move straight to the front. Front tires cross to the rear.

All-Wheel Drive

Typically an X-pattern where all tires cross sides and swap front/rear.

Directional Tires

Front and rear swap on the same side only.

Signs You Need a Rotation

• Uneven wear visible on tire treads
• Vehicle pulling to one side
• Steering wheel vibration

Don’t Forget Wheel Alignment

If your tires show uneven wear even after rotation, you may need a wheel alignment. We can inspect and advise during your rotation service.
