Local Certified Acura Tire Rotation Services in Austin, TX

Your tires are the literal foundation of your Acura, and they work endlessly to get you where you need to go. However, depending on your roads, your routes, and your driving habits, each one of your tires takes a different amount of wear and on different places on the tire. For example, a right turn puts more wear on the outside of the wheel than the inside, as the outside travels a longer distance. If you turn right more than you turn left, your left wheels will take more wear over time. This is all fixed by a tire rotation, which we’re ready to provide for you.

What Is a Tire Rotation

Tire rotations use the law of averages to fix the problem of uneven wear. In a tire rotation, the tires are moved to different positions on your car (back to front, left to right, etc), which suddenly puts a new and unique wear pattern on them. When they’re rotated again, they go to a third position and take that position’s wear for a while, and then lastly they go to the fourth position and do the same there. By the time your tires have been rotated four times, they’ve all taken, over the course of four rotations, the same amount of wear, so none of them should wear out any faster than the other.

When You Need a Tire Rotation

Since your tires are always in use when you use your car, tire rotation should happen quite frequently. Some experts recommend every 3,000 to 5,000 miles, and some recommend a rotation every time you get an oil change. We’ll leave your personal schedule up to you and your owner’s manual, but more frequent tire rotations allow your tires to be relieved of continuous wear, so keep that in mind when you’re deciding when to rotate your tires. Whether you rotate your tires every 5,000 miles or every oil change, you’ll be doing your tires and yourself a favor by preventing them from blowing out or failing early.
