Tire Rotation is Important

Your tires don’t hit the pavement at the same positions. The wheel position is unique for every tire, which is why it will wear down in one area more if the tire isn’t rotated. A tire rotation allows your tires to wear more evenly and last longer before they need to be replaced.
Failure to rotate your tires regularly could cause them to wear out sooner and be more susceptible to punctures and blow out. They may not get a good grip on the road, which increases your risk for an accident.

When Your Tires Need Rotating

Tire rotation is a regular part of preventative maintenance for your Chrysler, Dodge, Jeep, or RAM vehicle. You can check your owner’s manual to know when it’s time for a rotation.
Talk to the service team at Stanley Chrysler Dodge Jeep RAM Gilmer to find out more about when it’s time to schedule a tire rotation. Most of the time, it’s recommended between 5000 and 7000 miles.

Tire Rotation in Gilmer, TX

Tires can be rotated several different ways. For directional tires, the front tires move to the rear and rear tires move to the front. They must maintain the same direction for tread wear. For non-directional tires, a modified cross rotation is common.
This type of rotation has the tires along the drive axle to cross sides while the free turning tires move straight forward. For instance, with a front-wheel drive vehicle, the front driver-side tire will move to the passenger rear side while the driver rear tire will move up to take its place.
Four-wheel drive vehicles require a cross rotation on all four tires. Other patterns may be used, but these are the most common.

Balance and Alignment

Your tires also require balancing. If they are out of balance, your vehicle will vibrate as you drive. You may also need to get a wheel alignment, which is how the wheels hit the pavement. If you have problems with balance or alignment, it will cause your tires to wear faster. To avoid the costly replacement of your tires sooner than you would like, you need to plan on regular maintenance.
