Tire Rotation Service in Lanham, MD
Schedule Tire Rotation
What is Tire Rotation?
Tire rotation is the process of adjusting the position of each of your vehicle's tires regularly. It helps if you change your tires every 5,000 miles or as suggested by our factory-trained technicians at DARCARS Ford of Lanham. An excellent suggestion is to rotate your tires next time you are getting an oil change service.
Rotating your tires on a regular basis allows you to visually inspect them for damage, check their air pressure, get them rebalanced if they're vibrating, and check their tread depth.
Why is Tire Rotation Essential?
Tire rotation is an essential part of routine tire maintenance for many reasons. To begin with, rotating the tires on a regular basis shares wear equally over all four tires, extending their tread life; this is because each position on the vehicle requires a different amount of give from each tire. For example, the front tires of a front-wheel-drive car can absorb a more significant proportion of the torque and friction required for turning, accelerating, and braking and this can result in more or less tire wear. It is crucial to rotate new tires by 5,000 miles because deep, fresh tire tread is more susceptible to uneven wear.
Second, even treadwear maintains the tires' tread depth consistently, which will help you maintain a decent grip and handling through all four tires. This will boost the vehicle's cornering and braking efficiency while also making it safer to drive.
