Tires & Tire Rotation Montague NJ
You have heard that having your tires rotated is a good idea, but why? Anytime you purchase a new set of tires, the goal is to make them last for as long as possible and to have them wear out at the same rate so you can purchase your next set all at the same time, as well.
In reality, it is common for front tires to wear out faster than the rear ones due to their role in the acceleration and steering of your vehicle. To facilitate all four tires wearing evenly and at the same time, we recommend having them rotated every 6,000 to 8,000 miles.
Wheel Alignment
The alignment of your wheels is another thing that is crucial to how your tires wear over time. When they are not meeting the road at the appropriate angle, they are subject to excessive and uneven wear. Proper alignment also optimizes your vehicle’s handling and drivability. At Scotty’s Automotive, we recommend that you have your wheel aligned every 2 or 3 years or anytime you notice a change in steering or handling.
