Schedule Tire Rotation in Grants Pass
Tire Rotation Services Available at Our Grants Pass Dealership
Among the many auto services offered to drivers at our maintenance and repair center, tire rotations are a vital part of the process. These need to be done at regular intervals to keep the condition of your tires in good shape along with making sure your tires are safely providing the traction and support you need to ride through Grants Pass and beyond. We encourage you to schedule a tire rotation if you're in need.
The Importance of Tire Rotations
As you drive, your tire tread levels will wear down, and that wear leads to less stopping power and grip on the road and other surfaces. With a tire rotation, you're helping slow down the wear as it balances it out between your set of four tires. That's because, in different positions, tires experience different types of wear as they all function differently on your vehicle. By making sure one doesn't wear down more than the other, you're not only keeping your tires in good health but making sure you're safe out there too.
When to Get a Tire Rotation
It's important to get a tire rotation at the right intervals. It's recommended every 6,000 miles as this helps keep them lasting for as long as possible and balances out the tread wear well. We'll be sure to remind our customers of when they're due for a tire rotation. Some of us who might use winter tires along with our summer tires will find that any time you get a changeover, we're going to mount and balance your tires in a different position, and this does help keep your tires lasting longer if you do a change over each season.
Signs a Tire Rotation is Needed
There are signs that you need a tire rotation. One is going more than 6,000 miles without one, which means you're due to get one. Additionally, if you see a lot of tire wear on one tire, that's an indicator you've gone too long, and probably need a new set. You can measure whether you need new tires by doing the penny test of placing Lincoln's head face down, and if you can see the top of the head, you need a new set.
Other signs include vibrations as you drive at low or high speeds.
