• Tire rotation is moving of the tires of a vehicle
  or automobile from one position to another to
  ensure tire wear.

3

• It is an important factor to be considered to
  extend the useful life expectancy of a set of
  tires. Tire rotation is very easy auto
  maintenance tasks to perform, though it is
  equally important. When it is done correctly, it
  extends the lifetime of the tires, improves the
  gas mileage and it also ensures that the auto
  mobile is steady, smooth and predictable,
  especially when there is a sudden need to make a
  stop or a turn around the corner.

• Tire rotation does not only mean the rotation of
  the tires around the axles when the auto mobile
  is in motion, it also includes the moving of the
  tires to different locations around the auto
  mobile so that the tires are all wear evenly.

• Now the reason for uneven wear among most four
  wheeler is that the weight on the front and rear
  axles are quite different. This is mainly due to
  the fact that most of the cars have front engine
  and thus the front tires has to carry most of the
  weight. The front wheel drive vehicles have
  another issue that causes uneven wear

7

• it is because of the transaxle in the front which
  adds to the weight differential. In addition to
  the stress that is placed disproportionately on
  the front two tires after braking. Thus it is
  quite important for tire rotation to occur more
  frequently on four wheelers.

• In case of right turns in right-hand traffic,
  most of the right turns are tighter than the left
  turns and parking place have right hand curves.
  So left front wheels wears faster than right
  front because the left tire travels a greater
  distance around the turns. Same way in case of
  left-hand traffic countries the cars have most of
  their right wheels wear out because of the sheer
  pressure and the force that they go through
  during the sharp turns.

10

• It is like the way when an athlete in the
  leftmost lane runs further around the oval track
  that the athlete on the right most if the race is
  being run clockwise from a flat line start. So
  the sidewall of the right tire tends to get more
  rubbed and bumped while parking the vehicle. It
  causes asymmetric sidewall wear and symmetric
  opposite occurs in countries with drive on the
  left.

• Regular rotation of tires is not only important
  for vehicles with four tires but also with six
  wheelers that has dual rare wheels. During the
  rotation of each tire the wheel is removed from
  the vehicle and it moves to a different position
  to make sure all tires wear evenly. So this way
  they last longer.

13

• Most of these tires rotate almost every six
  months. So it is extremely important for the
  owners of the vehicle to have knowledge about
  tire rotation and tire wearing to know when to
  replace to estimate the life time or the tires.
