Tyre Rotation

Front tyres usually wear faster on front-wheel-drive cars. Patterns depend on tyre type and drive layout. Directional tyres stay on the same side. Many manufacturers suggest rotation roughly every 10,000 km, often at oil changes. Some cars with staggered sizes or directional tyres cannot be rotated in the usual pattern. Rotation is a good time to inspect tyres for damage and check wheel nut torque. Indirect TPMS may need resetting afterwards.

Each tyre spends time on both axles.

Do not rotate tyres of different sizes front and rear. Check pressures after rotation.
