How Often Should I Rotate My Tires?

That depends on the type of vehicle you drive! Front and rear tires wear differently based on your drivetrain, so front-wheel drive cars will see their front tires wear out faster than the rear tires, while the opposite is true in rear-wheel drive vehicles. Tires on the right side of your car also tend to wear out faster than the tires on the left, just because we’re more aggressive when we turn right, plus the extra weight of the drive on the right-hand side. So in most FWD cars, the front right tire wears out faster than, say, the left rear tire. Tire rotations even out these different wear patterns on your tires, swapping them out to ensure they all get the same use. Usually, it’s recommended to get your tires rotated every 5,000 to 8,000 miles, or twice a year. To save on visits to our dealership, it’s recommended you sync your tire rotations with oil changes to ensure you don’t spend any extra time in the shop.

When To Swap Snow and All-Terrain Tires?

Montana winters aren’t easy on cars or tires, and it’s well worth it to invest in a set of winter tires to ensure you can confidently navigate the ice and snow that dominate our roads every winter. As the winter wanes, though, it’s best to switch to a pair of all-season tires instead. Winter tires are softer than normal tires, and while that makes them perfect for maintaining traction in the snow, it causes them to wear out faster in warmer temperatures. Usually, you’ll want to swap out your winter tires once the day and night temperatures regularly sit above 45 degrees. Usually, this happens around the end of March to the middle of April. Our Volkswagen Service Center is also home to a Volkswagen Tire Center, so if you’re searching for a set of winter tires for your VW, we’re happy to help.
