You might have heard your dealership mechanic tell you to rotate your tires. While that might sound good, what is the purpose? Here is the reason why you should rotate your tires as a part of scheduled vehicle maintenance.
It would be great if your tires wore at the same exact rate, but they usually don't. It basically depends upon your vehicle suspension and shocks. Our dealership can check the tire tread to determine wear patterns. We can also adjust your vehicle to make the ride more uniform. The reason why we like to rotate your tires is to optimize longevity.
If you had one side wearing dramatically, then it might develop a hole, and if you hit an object, it could puncture the tire. By rotating your tires, you can distribute the tread wear more evenly. Tire rotation is just one of the numerous things we can do during your scheduled maintenance. For additional material or to schedule a maintenance visit, contact us at Cleburne Ford.
