Tire Rotation in Summerside, PEI

Why should I get this done?

Regularly scheduled tire rotation is an important service that is among those recommended by your vehicle manufacturer. Rotating tires is a critical maintenance step because it extends the life of your tires and greatly increases your safety on the road. Tire rotation service should be scheduled per the recommendations in your owner’s manual, we generally recommend around 12,000kms. 

Rotation involves the periodic repositioning of tires to promote more even tread wear. Performed at the scheduled  times, tire rotation will preserve balanced handling and traction, and promote even tread wear. Tire rotation can also result in performance advantages.

Rotation pattern is important because in most cases, the tires on the front axle need to accomplish very different things than the tires on the rear axle. Conditions encountered on a front-wheel drive vehicle are considerably different than those of a rear-wheel drive vehicle. Each individual wheel position can create different wear rates and different types of tire wear.

Most people in PEI just rotate their tires as they change over to the new season but having them rotated according to the manufacturer’s recommendation will never hurt. It will only help you to get the most out of your tires.
