Question:
Answers:
If it is a rear wheel drive the front tires do not have the stress of moving the vehicle only the back ones do that.
by rotating the tires, you change which part of the tire is subjected to stress and wear there by extending the life of the tires.
Why does the cigarette lighter on my 1995 subaru impreza not work, and how do I fix it?
Example: The front tires in front wheel drive do the steering, pulling and stopping. By moving them to the rear, they get to coast along while the front tires that USED to be on the back have to do all that work now. By changing the area of the tire that gets subjected to wear, you can add about 15%-20% to the number of miles the tires will be safe to drive on.
I know, I have been rotating tires on my cars since 1983.

You use your front tires more for braking, regardless of if you have front or rear wheel drive.If you have front wheel drive, you're naturally having more wear on your front tires. The same goes for rear wheel.
It's just a good idea to keep the wear even, so you don't need to buy two new front tires before your back ones wear out.
So that all four tires end up wearing equally is one reason that I know of. I know that people who do it have their tires last longer.

how often should i change oil in a yfz 450?
It evenly distributes the wear and tear on tires.Find the mean, median, and mode of these numbers. 90,92,85,82,and 90?
Rotation of Your tires is so that they "wear-out" properly.As most vehicles have more of their weight over the front tires and are the primary "drive wheels" they will wear sooner than the rear, so by rotating, you are getting the most use "mileage" out of your tires... i think you should have them rotated every 6,000 miles-
You should also have them "balanced" has the same affect for your tires and "smooths" out all that vibration when on the freeway-which is nice!

3. SAVES MONEY by making your tires last longer.
4. Better Grip.

Which tires are better? Yokohoma or Summit (by goodyear)?
first ...this need not be done if you do alignment of the tires regularly and also balancing of the tires .DTC # po332 knock sensor crk low voltage?
people who do this ...do so when they find uneven tire wear out between the front and rear tires .When find that the outer side of eg the rear left tire is worn out...then you rotate it to the front right side ...and so on ....but all said and done .....just check the alignment and balance the tires regularly
Is it hard if you let your new car warm up in the morning before driving it?
I dont see any advantage of rotating tires and I dont do it. Your tire wears its own pattern on every axel, so changing to a different axel causes the tire to wear different because it is on a different axel it just came from, it has to "wear in" to the new pattern, so rotating actuallty wears the tires faster, its nothing but a gimmick and isnt needed. Your tires dont last longer, they wear faster.What do the Fiat warning lights mean?
