As a Lexus owner, you take pride in your vehicle and want to keep it always performing at the highest level. One simple but critical aspect of vehicle maintenance is getting your tires rotated on a regular basis. Tire rotations help extend the life of your tires and ensure optimal performance and safety.
Why Are Tire Rotations Necessary?
The front and rear tires on your Lexus wear differently. Front tires carry more of the vehicle's weight and are subjected to the forces of steering, braking, and accelerating. This causes the front tires to wear more quickly than the rear tires. By rotating the tires regularly, you allow them to wear more evenly over time. This prolongs their life and improves overall traction and handling.
Uneven tire wear can also cause issues like vibration and pulling to one side while driving. Tire rotations help prevent these problems, leading to a smoother and safer ride. Most vehicle manufacturers, including Lexus, recommend rotating your tires every 5,000 to 7,500 miles to maintain even wear.
Signs Your Tires Need to Be Rotated
So how do you know when it's time to get your tires rotated? Here are a few key signs to watch out for:
- Uneven tread wear: Visually inspect your tires and look for signs of uneven wear. If the inside or outside of the tire is wearing faster than the center. If you notice balding spots, it's time for a rotation.
- Vibration while driving: If you feel a vibration in the steering wheel or seat while driving, it could indicate uneven tire wear.
- Vehicle pulling: Does your vehicle pull to the left or right while driving on a straight, flat road? A tire rotation can help resolve this issue.
