How often should you rotate your tires? If it’s been a long time since you visited the service center at Alfa Romeo of Glendale, you may be wondering when to rotate tires. According to most automotive experts, a tire rotation is recommended every 5,000 to 7,500 miles. While this interval should be good for most makes and models, you may still want to check your owner’s manual. There could be different recommendations from the manufacturer that should be followed. Still curious when to rotate tires? Alfa Romeo of Glendale is happy to provide this helpful guide.
The drivetrain of your vehicle determines where power from the engine is sent. If you have a front-wheel drive car, the power is sent to the front wheels. The opposite is true for rear-wheel drive automobiles. Because one set of tires receives the bulk of the engine power, those tires will wear down more rapidly than the other set. This is why having a tire rotation done is necessary. When tires wear unevenly, they will need to be replaced more often, costing you more money. Here are a few tips to keep in mind when it comes to tire rotations for FWD and RWD vehicles:
You may also be wondering how many miles to rotate tires on an AWD vehicle. A car with this drivetrain will need to have the tires rotated more often because each tire wears differently and at different speeds. According to a majority of automotive experts, it is best to have your tires rotated every 3,000 to 5,000 miles. Once again, it is important to look at your owner’s manual to see what the manufacturer has to say.
The main benefit of having a tire rotation is that it prolongs the life of your tires, so you do not need to replace them as often. However, that is not the only reason to make sure you keep up with this maintenance task. Other benefits include:
If you want to be prepared for any road condition you encounter as you travel through Los Angeles and Pasadena, keep tire rotations as part of your maintenance plan.
