Rotating your tires can prolong their life, ensuring your car is always in good, driving condition.

Why should I rotate my tires?

You should rotate your tires about every 5,000 miles or around the time that you get an oil change. The cost of tire rotation will vary depending on whether you decide to do it yourself or take it to a shop.

How often should I rotate my tires and how much does it cost?

To get this information, refer to your owner's manual for specific information about your specific tire rotation specs. It's important to follow this guideline.

Which tires do I rotate where?

Knowing your drivetrain capabilities, required tire sizes, and even knowing what spare tires to keep in hand all determine how to rotate your tires.

What factors determine how to rotate tires?

The typical rotation consists of switching the front tires to the rear, while crossing the rear tires up front. The opposite would be the case for rear wheel drive vehicles. It's important to refer to your owner's manual for the exact specifics.

What is the typical tire rotation for a front wheel or rear wheel drive vehicle?

Directional tires are typically found on high-performance sports cars, usually containing directional markers stamped on the side walls of the tire.

What are directional tires?

Once you've identified your tire rotation specs, the next step is to prep your car on a jack. You'll need a floor jack, sturdy jack stands, and wheel chocks. For dealing with the lugs, a tire iron will be sufficient but a ratchet and wrench works best.

What tools do I need to rotate my tires?

Once you have all tools you need, the first step to tire rotation is prepping your car. Find a flat surface to do the work. Put your transmission in park/first gear, and pull your e-brake up to make sure the car is stable.

What is the first step to rotating tires?

When chocking your wheels, if you're jacking up the left front of the vehicle, you'll want to chock the right rear. If you're lifting up the whole left side, you'll want to chock the whole right side.

How do I use wheel chocks?

First, remove the wheel cap. Using your socket wrench, loosen the lugs individually.

How do I remove the lugs when rotating my tires?

Refer to the owner's manual for information on where the jack stands should be placed when you're rotating your tires. Another good reference point for jack placement is to look and see if your car has any specific indentations or pinch points either on the side or under the car.

Where should I place the jack stand when rotating tires?

Position the weld attachment and line up your jack according to its position. Slowly bring the jack up to that point. Start jacking your car up to the point where you have enough room to position the jack stands under the car, and slowly lower it down into place.

How do I use a car jack when rotating tires?

To ensure safety, make sure the car jack is in place and snugged up to the car. You can also take a spare tire and place it underneath your car's pinch weld. Give your car a little push to make sure that it's staying put.

How do I make sure my car is safe in place when using a car jack to rotate my tires?

Locate the bolt behind the tire by the spring, as well as any pinch welds that may be present. Apply the same method to that pinch point as you did with the front of the vehicle. Ensure your car is stable in place.

How do I use a car jack to rotate my tires from the rear?

Once the car is stable, loosen out the lugs and remove the wheels. Start from one end of the car by removing the wheel and placing it safely under the car. Loosen the next wheel, remove it, and place it onto the opposite end of the car. Once the wheels are in place, remove the jack stands lower your car back down to the ground slowly.

How do I rotate my tires?

It's important that after you've rotated your tires, make sure the lug nuts are torqued to your car manufacturer's specifications. Use your torque wrench and make sure you don't skip this step.

How tight do the wheels' lug nuts need to be after rotating my tires?

Make sure you have valve stem caps for your tires. After rotating your tires, it's also good to check on your tire pressure and see if you have enough air in your tires. You can find the PSI spec on your door jam.

How do I check my tire pressure?

A tire-pressure monitoring system (TPMS) is an electronic system designed to monitor the air pressure inside the pneumatic tires on various types of vehicles. A TPMS reports real-time tire-pressure information to the driver of the vehicle, either via a gauge, a pictogram display, or a simple low-pressure warning light. Refer to your owner's manual to find out where it's located in your car and how to re-calibrate it.

What is a tire pressure monitoring system and where is it located?

The Dodge Demon is a limited production wide body and extreme (drag race level) performance variant of the already high performance Challenger SRT Hellcat. It debuted during the New York Auto Show in April 2017.

What is the Dodge Demon?

Once the traction control is defeated, the Dodge Demon is capable of doing some sweet burnouts.
