recommends that you rotate your tires according to the
maintenance schedule. (For scheduled maintenance

Supplement/Scheduled Maintenanceº.) However, the
most appropriate timing for tire rotation may vary
according to your driving habits and road surface
conditions.
The wheel assemblies must be rotated as illustrated above.
Pattern A: Except vehicles with the P205/55 R16 tires sold in
Canada.
Pattern B: Vehicles with the P205/55R16 tires sold in Canada.
When rotating tires, check for uneven wear and damage.
Abnormal wear is usually caused by incorrect tire pressure,
improper wheel alignment, out±of balance wheels, or severe
braking.
Before storing radial, snow or studded tires, mark the direction
of rotation and be sure to install them in the same direction
when using them again. Tires should be stored in a cool dry
place.
