Tire Rotation is the easiest aspect of maintenance when it comes to keeping your car in check. If managed perfectly, it can extend the life of your tires, improve performance and gas mileage, and make sure that the car handles in a steady and predictable manner.
When car owners leave all the worn out tires in the same corner of the car for a longer period of time, say years, and neglect the slight uneven weight distribution, they do not realize that the tires are wearing out from the inside and outside and may soon combust if it comes to that.
What Wears The Tires Out?
People who witness uneven wear and tear on the car tires should know that it is due to some mechanical fault with the car. It could be because of the way the tires are fixed, if they are not set in properly, some of the tires may drag along the road.
Uneven wear is also caused by tires that are not appropriately inflated.
The best way to avoid this uneven wearing of the tires and having them depreciate faster than they should is rotation. You must practice moving each tire to another corner of the car.
The Best Way To Go About It
First off, if you have never done this before, pick the manual and start reading through it. Generally people rotate tires the same time they change the engine oil, this is estimated to keep them wearing evenly.
It's best if you do this on your own instead of getting it done by a mechanic, it won't be too costly but if you do it on your own it will save you money in the long run. Plus rotating the tires is not rocket science, all you need is a jack and a mental plan on where to switch each tire.
The exact rotation pattern that is followed is that you move the rear tires to the front and the front tires to the rear and cross each from left to right and vice versa. Since the 1995 Jeep Grand Cherokee Limited is a four wheel drive, all the tires are the same size and should be treated as such.
