| Vehicles with front-wheel drive exhibit more tread wear on the front wheels due to the greater forces they have to transmit. |
| In order for all 4 wheels on the vehicle to have the same service life, we recommend rotating the front and rear wheels and tyres. |
| Ensure that uni-directional tyres are not reversed. |
| The longer the tyre runs at one position, the more it wears at certain points. Therefore it is recommended to rotate the wheels at short intervals, for example every 5,000 km. |
| Diagonal rotation is possible only with non-directional tyres. This method of wheel rotation is especially advantageous in the case of saw-tooth wear → Chapter. |
| If saw-tooth wear has already progressed and the tread is worn to more than 50%, only slight improvements would be achieved and rotation is not recommended. The elasticity of the tread blocks declines and the saw-tooth wear does not progress. |
