Rotate the tires and wheels at frequent intervals in order to equalize tire wear. Refer to Maintenance Schedule in Maintenance and Lubrication. In addition to scheduled rotation, rotate the tires and wheels whenever the tires are worn unevenly.
Radial tires tend to wear in the shoulder area, particularly in the front positions. Radial tires in non-drive locations may develop an irregular wear pattern that may increase tire noise. This makes regular rotation especially necessary.
