Front tyres wear faster because they bear more load due to the engine's weight and handle most of the steering and braking forces. Regularly rotating your tyres can help distribute wear more evenly and extend tyre life.

FAQs & Answers

  1. Why do front tyres wear out faster than rear tyres? Front tyres wear faster because they support more weight from the engine, and are responsible for steering and most of the braking forces, which increases their rate of wear.
  2. How often should I rotate my tyres to prevent uneven wear? It is generally recommended to rotate your tyres every 5,000 to 8,000 miles to help distribute tyre wear evenly and extend their lifespan.
  3. Can tyre rotation improve vehicle safety? Yes, regular tyre rotation promotes even tread wear, which improves traction, handling, and overall safety on the road.
