Tire Pressure & Rotation — Why It Matters
Tires are your only contact with the road. Correct pressure and regular rotation extend their life and improve safety and fuel use.
Correct pressure
Follow the recommended number (door-jamb sticker or manual), not the number on the tire itself. Check it cold, monthly and before trips.
Effect of wrong pressure
Low pressure raises fuel use and heat (blowout risk); high pressure cuts grip and wears the center. Both shorten life.
Rotation
Rotating tires regularly (per your manual) spreads wear, especially on front-wheel drive where fronts wear faster.
