Why Should I Rotate My Vehicle's Tires?

Your vehicle's tires will eventually wear, and because your front tires carry a heavier load, they tend to wear out faster. If you were to never rotate your tires, your tires would have very uneven wear. Tire rotation increases your safety behind the wheel and also extends the life of your tires so you can pay less on your next maintenance appointment.

Reference your owner’s manual for the optimal frequency to rotate your tires. A good rule of thumb is to consider rotating your tires every 5,000 miles.

How to Measure Tire Tread Depth

Tire tread depth is essential in maximizing performance and safety for your vehicle. Other benefits of good tire tread are improved gas mileage, improved traction, and an overall better driving experience. An easy way to measure if your tire tread is too shallow is the penny test! Simply insert a penny into your tire’s groove upside down, with Lincoln’s head facing towards you. If you can see all of Lincoln’s head and hair, your tire tread is below 2/32” and needs to be replaced immediately. The standard tread depth for brand new tires is typically around 10/32”.

Maintaining Proper Tire Pressure

Keeping proper air pressure in your tires is essential in making sure that your tires last longer, as well helps your car handle better and safer. Low tire pressures can effect braking distance and provide less responsive handling and steering at high speeds. Underinflated tires can allow the tire sidewalls to flex, causing heat which accelerates tread wear and in some cases may cause blowouts.

To find the correct tire pressure for your car, simply view your vehicle owner's manual or it should also be listed on the tire placard attached to the door edge or doorpost. You should check tire pressure regularly, at least once a month, and especially before any long road trips.
