Why Should I Rotate My Vehicle Tires and How Often?

The Importance of Rotating Tires on Your Volkswagen

Even when you are on top of maintaining your Volkswagen, you may find that your tires are something that can be easily forgotten about. Keeping up on their servicing not only increases their longevity but also helps make the ride more enjoyable for you and your family. One such tire-related service you should keep up on routinely is tire rotation. Rotating your tires helps keep wear consistent on all four wheels so that you don’t have to end up purchasing a new set of tires sooner than you would normally have to. Thelen VW in Bay City, MI, is eager to rotate the tires on your family Volkswagen at our Service Department. Simply schedule an appointment with us today at 989-246-8793, or use the XTime Scheduling tool on our website. 

What Do You Need to Know About Tire Rotation?

Why Rotate Your Tires? – As your vehicle rides along the road, it will unevenly wear the tires over time due to varying pressures and weights being placed on each tire. If you don’t routinely have the tires rotated to put the less worn tires in the spots where there is greater wear, some tires will need replacement quicker than others. With properly rotated tires, you’ll also find the driving ability of your Volkswagen to be much more predictable and smooth throughout your adventures. 

When Should You Have Your Tires Rotated? – Knowing the importance of having your tires rotated is one thing. The other is having an idea of when they should be. Our suggestion is to have your vehicle’s tires rotated anywhere between 5,000 and 7,500 miles. By having this approximate mileage in mind, you can make sure that your tires are being continually serviced and thereby maximize their longevity and overall ride smoothness. If you are approaching this range since your last tire rotation, make sure you schedule an appointment with us today!
