Tyre rotation is an important maintenance measure to ensure even tyre wear and extend service life. It is best to perform it every 5,000 to 10,000 kilometres or when uneven wear is detected. For front-wheel drive vehicles, the front tyres wear faster as they handle steering and braking tasks, so they need to be cross-rotated with the rear tyres (left front to right rear, right front to left rear). For rear-wheel drive vehicles, the rear tyres should be diagonally swapped with the front tyres to balance the wear of the drive wheels. After rotation, the tyre pressure should be adjusted to the standard for the corresponding wheel position, and It is best to perform dynamic balancing and four-wheel alignment simultaneously to optimize driving stability. Note that snow tyres or studded tyres cannot be rotated, and tyres with different front and rear sizes can only be swapped left and right. Regular rotation can reduce abnormal wear (such as uneven wear or wavy patterns), improve grip and driving quietness, reduce safety hazards caused by tyre problems, and save replacement costs in the long run. If there is a lack of guidance, the cross-rotation method for bias-ply tyres or the same-side rotation method for radial tyres can be prioritized.
