Why are tire rotations so important? That's a question we hear a lot. The key reason all vehicles should receive frequent tire rotations is to reduce uneven tire wear. Naturally, your tires tend to not wear evenly over time. Therefore, moving the tires to different positions on the vehicle will help to ensure that the same tires don't always receive the most tread wear. This helps your tires last longer, and can even boost gas mileage or provide a more comfortable riding experience. Moreover, when you rotate your tires, the vibrations that can occur from uneven wear are reduced, which is good news for your suspension system.
