Tire and Wheel Rotation and Inspection

TIRE AND WHEEL INSPECTION AND ROTATION
Check the tires for abnormal wear or damage. Rotate the tires in order to equalize the wear and obtain maximum tire life. In order to equalize wear, rotate the tires at the specified intervals. Also, rotate the tire and wheel assembly whenever you notice uneven tire wear. Radial tires tend to wear faster in the shoulder area, particularly in front positions, due to design. Radial tires in non-drive locations may develop an irregular wear pattern that can generate tire noise. This especially makes regular tire rotation necessary. Use the recommended rotation sequence shown in the appropriate illustration:
