Keep your vehicle safe and your tires lasting longer with routine rotations.
How Proper Tire Maintenance Improves Safety
Your vehicle’s tires are its only point of contact with the road. Proper tire maintenance, including regular rotations, ensures even wear, better handling, and improved safety. Failing to maintain your tires can cause uneven wear, higher fuel consumption, and a higher chance of blowouts.
Advantages of Timely Tire Rotations
Regular tire rotations come with several key benefits, including:
- Even Tread Wear: Regular rotations distribute wear more evenly, extending the life of your tires.
- Improved Handling: With even wear, handling improves, providing better traction and a safer drive.
- Increased Fuel Economy: Tires in good condition improve fuel efficiency by reducing rolling resistance.
- Lower Tire Replacement Costs: With regular tire rotations, you’ll save money by delaying the need for replacements.
Signs Your Tires Need Rotation
Not sure if it’s time to rotate your tires? Look for these signs:
- Uneven Tread Wear: If one side of your tire looks more worn than the other, it’s time for a rotation.
- Car Vibration: Uneven wear can cause noticeable vibrations, especially at higher speeds.
- Car Pulls to One Side: When your car pulls to one side, it’s often a result of uneven tire wear.
As a rule of thumb, consider rotating your tires every 5,000 to 7,500 miles or as specified in your vehicle’s manual.

When you get a tire rotation, expect the following services:
- Checking for tire damage or uneven wear
- Inflating tires to the proper pressure
