Lexus Tire Rotation Benefits

The key benefit to your vehicle is that tires that wear out evenly last longer, and are less likely to fail due to stress while driving. Tires treads wear out through use, and wear out faster on whatever axles are getting power. Rotating them ensures a more even tread depth, for improved traction on loose, slippery, or steep road surfaces. Tires that are wearing evenly also produce less road noise, reduce stress on the drivetrain, and improve overall fuel efficiency.

How Are Tires Rotated?

This depends on the drivetrain of your vehicle. On a front- or rear-wheel drive vehicle, the front and rear tires are swapped, and the tires coming off the main drive axle are flipped left to right. On a vehicle with all-wheel drive, all the tires would be flipped left to right, while also moving front to back.

How Often Should Tires Be Rotated?

For any vehicle with front- or rear-wheel drive, you should rotate your tires every 8,000 km to 12,000 km. All-wheel drive tires should be rotated a little more frequently, at roughly every 5,000 km to 8,000 km, as they see more wear due to the both axles being powered.
