Tire Rotation Maintenance Explained

Tire rotation services extend tire life and promote the best driving experience along the way. Each wheel position handles variable road forces that lead to rapid tread wear. Front tires hold more of the engine’s weight and handle steering pressures, leading them to experience faster wear than the rear tires. Tire rotation strategically repositions the tires to handle equivalent long-term road pressures. Honda generally recommends tire rotation services every 10,000 miles in standard driving conditions.

What Happens Without Tire Rotations?

When tires are left in the same position, they experience rapid, irregular wear and the associated consequences. Rapid wear leads to wheel imbalances and shaking while driving that causes premature suspension depreciation. If left unattended, rapid wear leads to unsafe driving as damaged tires cannot hold air pressure.

Honda-Certified Tire Rotation Service Overview

We perform tire rotation services according to Honda-certified standards. Our certified technician removes the wheel assemblies to conduct a thorough tire inspection. We evaluate for irregular tread wear, measure the remaining tread depth, and check/adjust air pressures as needed to specifications. We inspect the exposed braking, suspension, and steering components with the wheels removed. We reposition the wheel assemblies using the genuine Honda rotation pattern at the recommended model-specific lug nut torque.
