Why Does My Chevy Need Tire Rotation?

The tires on your Chevy wear down as you drive, but did you know that they don't all wear down at the same rate? The tires in the front of your vehicle will usually wear out faster since they're put under more stress. Even if your Chevy isn't a front-wheel drive, the front tires have to deal with the extra strain of being on the axle that steers the vehicle. Tire rotation is a good way to counteract this uneven wear. When you have the tires on the front moved to the rear (and those on the rear moved to the front), you space out the wear more evenly, allowing each pair of tires a chance to rest and a chance to pull their weight.

How Often Does My Chevy Need Tire Rotation Service?

At Ourisman Chevrolet of Rockville, we recommend having the tires rotated at least once a year or every 10,000 miles -- whichever comes first. Since this is the same interval as oil changes, it's easy to bundle the two. However, you can have the tires rotated even more frequently if you'd like. Some people even recommend having this service done twice a year.
