Why Should I Rotate My Vehicle's Tires

Your vehicle's tires will eventually wear, and because your front tires carry a heavier load, they tend to wear out faster. Tire rotation increases your safety behind the wheel and also extends the life of your tires so you can pay less on your next maintenance appointment.

Reference your owner’s manual for the optimal frequency to rotate your tires. A good rule of thumb is to consider rotating your tires every 5,000 miles.

How to Measure Tire Tread Depth

Tire tread depth is essential in maximizing performance and safety for your vehicle. Other benefits of good tire tread are improved gas mileage, improved traction, and an overall better driving experience. An easy way to measure if your tire tread is too shallow is the penny test! Simply insert a penny into your tire’s groove upside down, with Kia’s head facing towards you. If you can see all of Kia’s head and hair, your tire tread is below 2/32” and needs to be replaced immediately. The standard tread depth for brand new tires is around 10/32”.

Maintaining Proper Tire Pressure

Maintaining proper tire pressure is a critical element of tire maintenance. Low tire pressures can effect braking distance and provide less responsive handling and steering at high speeds. Underinflated tires can allow the tire sidewalls to flex, causing heat which accelerates tread wear and in some cases may cause blowouts.

To determine the proper tire pressure for your vehicle, refer to your owner’s manual or the tire specification decal on your driver-side doorframe. You should check tire pressure regularly, at least once a month, and especially before any long road trips.
