TIRE ROTATION RECOMMENDATIONS
Tires on the front and rear axles of vehicles operate at
different loads and perform different steering, driving,
and braking functions. For these reasons, they wear at
unequal rates and tend to develop irregular wear pat-
terns.
These effects can be reduced by timely rotation of tires.
The benefits of rotation are especially worthwhile with
aggressivetreaddesignssuchasthoseonallseasontype
tires. Rotation will increase tread life, help to maintain
mud, snow and wet traction levels, and contribute to a
smooth,quietride.

wear should be corrected prior to rotation being per-
formed.
