Front and rear tyres do different jobs so they usually wear at different rates. Regular tyre rotation is therefore needed to help even out any irregular wear patterns and ensure maximum tyre life.

Many manufacturers recommend tyre rotation at least every 10,000km, or more frequently if uneven wear patterns appear. Depending on the wear patterns, attention to wheel alignment, correct tyre pressures or revising driving style may also be required.  High powered Front Wheel Drive vehicles can be very hard on front tyres and, depending on driving style, it could be necessary to rotate tyres even more frequently to maximise their life.
We always suggest following the vehicle manufacturer's rotation recommendations as outlined in the vehicle's handbook, or alternatively taking visiting one of our stores for help.
