Tyre Rotation

Uniformly Sensible

It’s rotation policy that few Kiwis could quibble with. The object of tyre rotation is to achieve a uniform amount of wear on each tyre, eliminating, for instance, excessive wear on the front tyres of front wheel drive vehicles. These take the strain of breaking and steering. They’re likely to wear before the rear tyres do. So, like an overused prop forward, they need a break.

It is best to come to one of Discount Tyres’ Auckland branches to carry out the rotation. Some tyres need to be rotated in a certain direction. This can depend on tread patterns, or the type of vehicle, whether four-wheel drive or front-wheel drive. Also, when tyres are switched from front to back, and vice versa, different tyre pressures may need to be applied. So come to the experts.

Your tyres should be rotated at least every 10,000 kilometres.
