Tire Rotation and Balance: Everything You Need to Know

The Importance of Regular Tire Balancing and Rotation for Your Vehicle

Here in Sun Prairie, we know the importance of maintaining our vehicles, Because we know it saves us money in the long run. But, too often we forget that proper tire maintenance is also crucial for the overall performance, safety, and longevity of our cars and trucks. And two key tasks of this maintenance are regular tire balancing and tire rotation. So, in this blog the experts at Meineke in Sun Prairie explore why tire balancing and rotation services matter and how often they should be performed.

Why Tire Balancing Matters

Tire balancing ensures that the weight of your tires is evenly distributed around the wheel. Because, over time, everyday wear can cause imbalance. And this leads to uneven tire wear, vibration while driving, and even stress on your vehicle’s suspension system. Whereas, properly balanced tires provide a smoother ride, better handling, and reduce the risk of premature tire and suspension wear.

The Role of Tire Rotation

Tire rotation involves moving your tires from one position on the vehicle to another, such as front tires to the back and vice versa. Because the front and rear tires wear differently due to weight distribution and driving patterns. And this regular rotation promotes even tread wear, extending tire life, improving performance, and enhancing fuel efficiency.

How Often Should It Be Done?

A good rule of thumb is to have your tires balanced and rotated every 5,000 to 7,500 miles or as recommended in your vehicle’s owner’s manual. However, if you notice vibrations, uneven tread wear, or changes in handling, call Meineke in Sun Prairie to have your tires checked sooner.
