6. Taking care of your new tires.
Tire Rotation
Tire rotation can be beneficial in several ways. When done at the recommended times, it can preserve balanced handling and traction and even out tire wear. Tire rotation can even provide performance advantages.
Many tire mileage warranties require tire rotation to keep the warranty valid. When should tires be rotated? Tire manufacturers recommend that tires be rotated every 4,000 to 6,000 kilometers even if they don't show signs of wear. When it is time to change your oil, it is also a good time to book a tire rotation. This can also be a good time to have your tires balanced if you have noticed any vibration while driving. While rotating your tires we will inspect the tires for any damage, remove stones or debris from the tire treads, check for uneven wear by checking the tire tread depth and of course, checking your tire pressure.
Tire rotation helps even out tire wear by allowing each tire to serve in as many of the vehicle’s wheel positions as possible. Remember, tire rotation can’t correct wear problems due to worn mechanical parts or incorrect inflation pressures, but can identify these problem and allow you to correct them.
