Why Do I Need to Rotate My Tires?

Many motorists apparently don't think so, as tire rotation is
one of the more neglected routine maintenance items. You can
even spot many vehicles that suffer neglect: They're the ones
with front wheels that are nearly black from accumulated brake
dust. The front brakes are larger than the rears on most
vehicles and do 75 percent or more of the braking, so they
generate more pad dust.
Whether your vehicle has front-, rear-, all- or four-wheel
drive, your tires benefit from a change of scenery from time to
time because the weight and workload they carry is unevenly
distributed among the four wheels. That makes the tires wear
unevenly.
A majority of vehicles on the road are front-wheel drive or have
all-wheel-drive systems that operate in front-drive most of the
time. The front tires carry an extraordinary load on those
vehicles.

How frequently tires should be rotated depends on the vehicle
and the manufacturer's recommended interval, which should be
listed in the service section of the owner's manual. A good rule
of thumb is to rotate them at least as often as you change the
oil, or more often if the oil-service interval is, say, 10,000
miles. For example, if you drive 12,000 to 15,000 miles per
year, you should be rotating the tires twice a year.
