The only time rotating tires will help is if you have a 4wd / AWD vehicle, because you have to change all 4 tires at the same time on those cars. But for FWD vehicles, you can just change out the front and back tires in pairs when they wear out Thanks for watching!

FWD AWD 4WD RWD all have front tires that turn the vehicle. Very few vehicles have four wheel steering. So if you using a steering wheel to turn the tires you need to rotate tires. I would go with factory recommended intervals give or take a couple miles.

[@gravemind6536]

Many RWD cars use wider tyres on the rear axle so its not possible to rotate tyres, its essential to rotate 4WD and AWD tyres. FWD its not essential but still best for overall performance and its more cost effective to buy tyres in 4s.

[@cecegiles4583]

If you're treading is uneven definitely rotate

[@jaycour6423]

As a mechanic, I must say. We don't rotate tires because of how well the tires are made, we rotate them to maximize tire life. Tires will wear more on what we call "drive wheels". This is to say, the tires that receive direct power from the transmission. That way, you can keep your tires for a longer period of time.

[@rfarevalo]

So once you rotate the tires now you "rear wheels" are on the front "drive wheels" and will start to wear rubber more. So now you are wearing those wheels at a faster rate. There is no benefit. Overall cost to the motorist is the same. I replace my front drive wheels when worn, you apparently want to replace all 4 wheels at the same time. Do you rotate your brake rotors too? :-)

[@jaycour6423]

@@rfarevalo It’s simply to even tire wear so you aren’t buying tires as often

Some replace two tires at a time and put the best used on the back, avoiding 4 tire cost. I rotate around 6k miles or so and replace 4 as a set when they’re worn. The front tires wear different than the rear because of steering and weight differences. This is one time I disagree with Scotty. While I don’t think you need to rotate at every oil change, I do believe in it as tires show wear.

[@Dreson45]

Tires are one of the most important parts on your vehicle and their condition should be taken seriously. Front tires typically wear much faster than rear tires due to multiple factors. These include alignment angles, drivetrain, weight distribution, cornering, braking, and driving habits to name a few. Front tires will also wear unevenly compared to the rear tires even when alignment and tire pressures are set to specifications. This is due to alignment angles inherent to cars that are necessary for stability and to counteract road crowning which is common on almost all roads. Due to these facts, it is best to maintain even tire wear on all four tires for the life of the tires. Worn tires can cause driveability and handling issues without even mentioning safety. Most drivers won’t notice these effects on dry roads but you have to account also, for low traction conditions. That’s the reason treads exist. Another factor not mentioned is tire age which is a serious safety concern. If your front tires wear out four times faster than the rear, for example, how old then are the rear tires on your fourth set of fronts? There have been many cases of fatal crashes due to old tires. I realize some vehicles have staggered tire sizes and also directional tires so rotations aren’t even an option. In those cases, the tires should be replaced in pairs or sets depending on wear, condition, and tread difference. I can’t agree with Scotty on this one. If you can save money, certainly do that, but you shouldn’t do that at the expense of safety, for yourself, your family, and everyone else on or near the road.

[@MarzNet256]

Tread on road tires is not for traction but to pump away water on wet roads which prevents hydroplanning. This is a common misconception. In dry conditions a smooth tire has maximum traction. Just look at F1 tires.

[@Dreson45]

@@MarzNet256 tread is for both. Look at F1 tires when they’re worn, they’re still slick however tires lose grip as they wear. Also, I mentioned that.

[@joephillips1937]

My thought process is that the front tires turn more than the back so they wear faster than the back so you should rotate from front to back 😮

Not just that but where all of the weight is, with engine and trans etc sitting between them. And hard cornering etc. Personally I've also never got an alignment yet my truck drives pretty straight but it could use an alignment some day

For safety reason, you want all four tires to wear evenly. It's not uncommon the front tires will wear three or four times faster than the rear tires on a FWD vehicle.

Scotty suggests replacing tires in sets of two. The problem with this is that tire manufacturers discontinue tire models after a few years.

Rotating is important. I think around 5,000 miles is fine. The reason being is whether it’s fwd or AWD or RWD, the front tire outside edge gets worn down faster simply because they steer the car and are at a sharper angle to the road due to turning, than the rear tires.

[@JerryHelton-zo7dg]

your front tires turn left and right all the time. After about 10 to 12 thousand miles you will notice the front tires outside edges are wearing off. The rears will still have a nice square shoulder on them. That's why I rotate my tires about every 12 to 15 thousand miles.

The problem is, most cars are FWD where: Front tires wear out on the threads. Rear tires rotted out due to age. If you rotate the front to the back, it will at least eliminate the rotting problem (ensure the threads are used up before they are rotted).

Are you kidding me? I am a licensed technician, have been for over 20 years and I can tell you that any tire on a front steering axle will wear the outside edges from cornering and that is the reason we rotate from front to back. It allows the tire to wear evenly to maximize your tire life. Why wouldn't you want to rotate your tires if it saves you money? I can tell you as a tech I always inspect the tires on the car and only recommend a rotation if necessary. It is pointless to rotate them if they don't need to be so maybe we need to address the issue of bad shops that like to rip people off and not the issue of rotating tires.

[@tomculbertson5569]

I don't know the equivalent of highway miles to local miles. With most of the miles being driven in a straight line tread wear is more uniform increasing the length needed for rotations. It probably wouldn't hurt to rotate them an additional time but they seem to wear quite even for me. I don't like having anyone else rotate them. Trust issues based on past experiences having my rims scratched, not balanced properly, incorrect air pressure, not torqued to exact specs, etc. If they look like they are wearing uneven by all means rotate them more frequently.
