Tire Inspection and Rotation

We recommend that you regularly inspect the vehicle’s tires, including the spare tire, for signs of wear or damage.

See When It Is Time for New Tires on page 9-56 for more information.

Tires should be rotated every 5,000 to 8,000 miles (8 000 to 13 000 km). See Scheduled Maintenance on page 11-4.

The purpose of a regular tire rotation is to achieve a uniform wear for all tires on the vehicle. This will ensure that your vehicle continues to perform most like it did when the tires were new.
