How to get longer tyre life of your car?

-Proper air pressure of your tyres.
-Rotate your tyres every 10,000km.
-Check wheel alignment every 10,000km.








Why should I rotate my tyres?

The purpose of regular tyre rotation is to achieve more uniform wear for all tyres on a vehicle. Before you rotate the tyres, consult the vehicle owner's manual for the manufacturer's rotation recommendation. If no rotation period is specified, tyres should be rotated every 10,000km. The first rotation is the most important.

If the tyres show uneven wear, ask a serviceman to check and correct any misalignment, imbalance, or other mechanical problem before rotation.

Manufacturers often recommend different inflation pressures for the front and rear tyres. When tyres are rotated, inflation pressures must be adjusted to the vehicle manufacturer's recommendations.
