The object of tyre rotation is to achieve a uniform amount of wear on each tyre, eliminating excessive wear on the front tyres of front wheel drive vehicles. These take the strain of breaking and steering. They’re likely to wear before the rear tyres do.
Some tyres need to be rotated in a certain direction. This can depend on tread patterns, or the type of vehicle, whether four-wheel drive or front-wheel drive.
When this is done constantly, the tyres are more likely to maintain good handling and traction, and deliver maximum tread life. However, it’s important to remember that tyre rotation cannot guard against rapid or uneven wear if your vehicle has faulty mechanical parts, or improper tyre abuse or inflation pressure.
