Tire lnspection and Rotation
Tires should be inspected every
6,000
to
8,000
miles
(
10
000
to
13
000
km)
for any signs of unusual wear. If unusual wear
is
present, rotate your tires as
soon
as
possible and check wheel alignment. Also check for damaged tires
or wheels. See “When It’s Time for New Tires” and “Wheel Replacement”
later
in
this section for more information.
The purpose
of
regular rotation
is
to achieve more uniform wear for all tires
on the vehicle. The first rotation is the most important. See “Scheduled
Maintenance Services”
in
the Index for scheduled rotation intervals.
When rotating your
tires, always use
the
correct rotation
pattern shown here.
Don’t include the compact spare tire
in
your tire rotation.
After the tires have been rotated, adjust the front and rear inflation pressures
as shown on
the
Certification/Tire label. Make certain that all wheel nuts are
properly tightened. See “Wheel
Nut
Torque”
in
the Index.
