How often should my tires be rotated?

How often should my tires be rotated?

When it comes to our vehicle, we all love to save money while being safe on the road.  There is a lot to keep up with when it comes to maintaining a vehicle. Making sure your tires are well taken care of is important to the safety of your car and others on the road. That's why your tires are rotated periodically to keep you safe and provide better performance for your car.

Your tires should be rotated about every six months or so, or every 6,000 to 8,000 miles to extend the life of the treads. During rotation,
each tire is taken off, inspected, and put into a new position. This prevents wear and tear on just one spot or one tire. Many mechanics offer tire rotation services during a routine oil change or a tune-up. 

Not all vehicles need tires rotated as often as others. Rotating is recommended for motorcycles and six-wheeled vehicles as well. Check your owners manual on your car to find out the specific information on your tires.

Rotating tires is a job best left to an experienced professional, like the team at Accurso Auto Repair. If the tires are not installed correctly it could cause expensive damage and pose a safety risk They know precisely when and how to rotate your tires to give you the best driving experience.

If you have more questions about rotating your tires or if you believe it is time for them to be rotated, contact Accurso Auto Repair, The Villages® Community's premier auto mechanic!

Finally heading out on a road trip? Get your vehicle checked first!

The days of the pandemic are finally on the mend. Now we can take our masks off and breathe a sigh of relief and take that road trip we were planning last Summer. Taking a road trip with the whole gang is a staple in some families, and it has probably been a while since most family members have seen each other face to face. Before you set off on this adventure, making a checklist is probably one of the most important things to do. At the very top of your list shouldn't be to bring extra underwear or an extra toothbrush; nope, it should be to make sure your vehicle can handle the drive!
