Seasonal Tire Change Over at #4429 TAKE 5, 1009 Talbot St.

Since many crossover all-wheel-drive vehicles are actually in front-wheel-drive mode most of the time, rotating the tires on these vehicles should be done often, since the front tires can be expected to wear more rapidly than the rear tires.

The rear tires just follow the fronts, so they usually wear more evenly. If you leave tires in place, those outside edges on the front tires will wear down much faster than the rest. A poor alignment or unbalanced tires can also cause uneven wear. Rotating tires keeps them from wearing unevenly.

Tires should be rotated every 10,000 kilometers for maximum performance and longevity.

The Ministry of Transportation recommends that tires are rotated every 10,000 kilometers. By rotating your tires, you will help to reduce the expense of replacing your tires too soon.
