Tire
Inspection
and
Rotation
Tires should be irispected 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
dmaged tires or wheels. See “When it’s Time for New
Tires” and “Wheei 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 interval&
When rotating your tires, always use one of
the
correct
rotation pgtterns shown here.
