Tyre Rotation

Tyre Rotation Service in Pukekohe

Front and rear tyres wear differently due to steering, braking, and weight distribution. Regular rotation evens out wear across all four tyres, extending their life by up to 20% — saving you real money on replacements.

Signs You Need a Rotation

• Front tyres wearing faster than rears (common on FWD vehicles)
• Uneven tread depth between front and rear
• Handling feels different — less grip in corners or uneven braking
• Over 10,000 km since last rotation

Why It Matters

Without rotation, front tyres on a front-wheel-drive car can wear out twice as fast as the rears. That means buying two new tyres sooner than needed. A quick $40 rotation extends all four tyres equally — one of the best-value services we offer.

How We Do It

1. Remove all four wheels and inspect tread depth and condition
2. Rotate front-to-rear (or cross-pattern for 4WD/AWD)
3. Check pressures — adjust to manufacturer spec for the new position
4. Torque to spec — all wheel nuts tightened correctly

Takes just 20-30 minutes. Add a wheel balance or alignment check at the same time to maximise tyre life.

Pricing

Tyre rotation from $40 including GST. Walk-ins welcome or book online.

Frequently Asked Questions

How often should I rotate my tyres?

Every 10,000 km or at every second oil change — whichever comes first.

Can you rotate tyres with different sizes front and rear?

If your vehicle has staggered fitment (different sizes front/rear), rotation isn't possible. We'll advise you when you come in.
