What does it mean to get my tires rotated?

Tire rotation is an important maintenance task that will help extend the life of your tires. Generally, you should get your tires rotated every six thousand miles. Many shops will rotate your tires as part of an oil change appointment. Tire rotation moves your tires from front to back and left to right. This ensures that each tire wears at a consistent rate and dangerous situations where one or two tires are over-worn are avoided.
