Tire replacement can sometimes be a time consuming and expensive task. Sometimes tires get replaced because they have become worn. One of the ways that tires wear unevenly is when the vehicle is steered. When a vehicle is steered, and it turns, its front tires may become worn on their edges. However, the rear wheels don't turn like the front wheels, so they don't become worn the same way as the front wheels.
One of the ways to help prevent having to replace tires more often than necessary is to have a vehicle’s tires rotated. Tire rotation is when a vehicle's tires are moved around to different places on the vehicle than they were before. Tire rotation helps tires wear more evenly. When tires wear evenly, they last longer, which may help reduce the amount of new tires that need to be bought.
Tire rotation may be a helpful part of vehicle maintenance. Make a tire rotation appointment with us at Mike Piazza Honda in Langhorne, PA, if you haven’t gotten your tires rotated in quite some time.
