Tire Rotations
Do you ever wonder why tire rotations are so important? It could be that you've never owned a car before, or you think it's a waste of time and money. Tire rotations are essential maintenance because it prolongs the life of your tires. Because tires are prone to wear uneven, they need to be routinely moved from one axle to another to alternate the wear pattern. Typically, the front tires will wear down much faster than the rear tires. And if the front tires remain on the front axle, they will need to be replaced a lot sooner than necessary. That is an out-of-pocket expense you can avoid with regular tire rotations.
Another important reason to consistently schedule your tire rotations is for maximum driving comfort. Generally, your tires should be rotated every 10,000 miles. When your tires are rotated at Toyota of Somerset, we also inspect them for quality, air pressure, and wear patterns to determine if an alignment or tire balancing is needed. Did you know that we sell tires? If you need new tires near Richmond, KY, we sell all the top brands. And we can install and balance them too.
Wheel Alignments
A wheel alignment should always be completed when you buy new tires. It is essential to ensure the tires wear evenly and to prevent premature tire wear. A wheel alignment is also needed to ensure no suspension issues that may impact tire wear. Other than that, how do you know if you need a wheel alignment?
First, scheduling a wheel alignment inspection is highly recommended. Our technicians can identify any issues ahead of time before premature tire wear, or uneven tire wear gets any worse. Once a year is ideal. But a random inspection may need to occur if you're experiencing certain symptoms while driving.
Symptoms that indicate you may need a wheel alignment include:
- Vehicle drastically pulls to one side while driving
- Shaking or vibration in the steering wheel (especially at highway speeds)
- Excessive tire wear on the inner or outer tire edges
Our technicians are certified in steering and suspension repair. So, if any repairs are needed before your alignment can be completed, they can be done in our state-of-the-art facility. We provide our technicians with the most advanced equipment. And your service advisor will make sure you're advised of any needed repairs before any work is completed. And of course, we only use genuine Toyota parts to make sure your vehicle maintains its value and the highest level of safety and performance.
