Tire Rotation In East Elmhurst, NY

When getting your tires rotated, you are prioritizing your safety as well as saving money. This service also works to extend the life of your tires. Therefore, it is very important to regularly rotate your tires. Refer to your owner manual for how often to rotate your tires. Typically, the recommended rotation interval is about every 5,000 miles.

Different Tire Rotation Patterns for Tire Rotation

The pattern that our technicians will rotate your vehicle will primarily depend on what type of drive train your vehicle has.

  • Forward cross: This is used in front-wheel drives. The front tires move to the rear, and the rear tires move to opposite sides of the front. 
  • X-pattern: This is another alternative to front-wheel drive tire rotation. The front and rear tires move to opposite sides and move to the front or rear in a cross pattern.
  • Rearward cross: This is the opposite of the forward cross. The front tires move to the opposite sides of the rear, and the rear tires just move to the front.
  • Front to back: This pattern refers to the front tires moving to the back and the rear tires moving to the front.
  • Side to side: Depending on whether your vehicle has different sizes or non-directional tires on the front axle or rear axle, the tires will be moved side to side.
  • Six tire rotation: For dual rear tires, the rotation is a triangle for each side of the truck. For each side, our technicians will move the outer dual tire to the inner position, the inner dual tire to the steer position, and the steer tire to the outer dual position.
  • For vehicles with full-size spare tires, it is important to follow the owner's manual of the vehicle to determine the pattern for tire rotation. The pattern will depend on the drivetrain. This pattern only applies to vehicles equipped with full-size spare tires, not temporary spare tires.
