Here are some of the benefits you’ll reap after having this maintenance performed by your Chevy dealer service specialists.

1. Even Out Wear and Tear

Your tires will face differing levels of wear and tear over the course of operating your vehicle. For example, the front tires on a front-wheel drive vehicle are going to wear down much quicker than the rear tires. Rotating tires regularly evens out this wear and tear so that none of the tires malfunction before their time.

2. Decreased Noise and Vibration

After getting your tires rotated, there will be less friction created by your tires as they move across the surface of the road. That will give you and your passengers a quieter ride to enjoy, letting you focus on conversation or music instead of being drowned out by external noise coming inside.

3. Better Fuel Efficiency

Less friction on your tires also reduces the amount of energy needed to help your vehicle move. That means rotating your tires will also help your vehicle reach the highest level of fuel efficiency possible. Every driver can benefit from reduced costs at the fuel pump, so be sure to get your tires rotated as needed.

4. Optimized Vehicle Handling

Keeping your tires serviced will also improve your vehicle’s performance. The greater traction that you enjoy will keep your tires gripped to the road even on tight turns or slippery surfaces. You’ll have more precision in your drive, resulting in a more responsive and more engaging experience when you’re behind the wheel.

5. Protect Other Parts of Your Vehicle

Driving on bad tires can be damaging to other components of your vehicles as well. Rotating your tires helps to protect the wheels, wheel bearings, axles, suspension, brakes, and more. This simple service can benefit parts of your vehicle well beyond just your tires.

6. Create Safer Driving Conditions

Losing traction on tires that have worn out their tread can create a dangerous situation on the road. By rotating your tires and making the most out of the tread available, you can reduce this risk. You’ll also lower the chances of a tire blowout occurring, which is another dangerous situation that can cause you to lose control of the vehicle.

7. Save Time and Money Over Time

While you might think you’re saving money by skipping a visit to the service center, rotating your tires will ultimately save you money in the long run. You’ll get a longer lifespan from your tires, reducing the frequency that you need to pay for a new set. The reduced chance of needing other repairs and improved fuel efficiency will add further savings.
