Irregular wear may lead to:

Deformations of the tire, visible by smooth surfaces or unequal patterns.
Vibration and annoying noises, making driving uncomfortable.
An increased risk of bursting, which is particularly dangerous at high speed.

Regular tyre rotation avoids these problems while improving grip, especially in bad weather or on slippery roads.

Tyre rotation: an economic investment

A prematurely used tyre can reduce its lifespan by 20% or more. Since replacing a set of tyres costs several hundred euros, a regular rotation offers several advantages:

Extends the life of the tyres, reducing their frequent replacement.
Improves fuel consumption through better traction distribution.
Avoids costly repairs, such as those related to deformed tyres.
How much does it cost to rotate tyres?

In the workshop, the average cost of a tyre rotation ranges from 20 to 50 euros, depending on the services offered. Some garages offer this service free of charge if you have bought your tyres at home. Remember to inquire.

If you're a do-ityman, it's possible to do this yourself. Get a jack, a chaser and holds to ensure your safety.

Tyre rotation: a reflex to be adopted

Taking care of your tyres is investing in your safety. Regular rotation improves their durability while optimising your driving comfort. So, on your next emptying, don't forget your tires: they deserve it as much as you do.
