What is Proper Tire Rotation?

Tire Rotation Service Tailored to the Car You're Driving

Cars need tires. It sounds like an obvious thing to say, but it's something that really can't be understated. You can buy the best-equipped, most expensive car the market has to offer, and it's going nowhere with a good set of tires to carry it across the road.

That's why regular tire rotation services are so important. Even the best tires wear out with time. Tire rotations, performed every six months or 6,000 miles, can help to reduce the wear and tear your tires experience from regular use. The service team at Hennessy Porsche North Atlanta can help you get the tire rotation service you need.

Which Tire Rotation Pattern is Right for Me?

Tire rotation is, for the most part, a fairly simple maintenance procedure. There are different ways of doing it, however, that might be more useful for you depending on the driving you do and the vehicle you're driving. Our service team can help direct you to the tire rotation pattern that's right for you.

• Forward Cross: The most common tire rotation method, Forward Cross involves moving your front tires to the back end of your car, then from the right side to the left. This option is most useful for front-wheel drive vehicles.
• Rearward Cross: The opposite of the Forward Cross method, Rearward Cross involves swapping the tires from the rear portion of the vehicle to the front portion. You then switch the tires' sides as well. This method is generally reserved for rear-wheel and four-wheel drive vehicles.
• X-Pattern: Much like its name suggests this tire rotation pattern involves moving the tires in directions almost akin to an X. Front-right to rear-left, front-left to rear-right. This is used, typically, for rear and four-wheel drive vehicles.
