Tips for rotating tyres

Model: (Various brands) Various
Part: Tires

Video tutorial

This video provides useful guidance on how to properly rotate the tyres on your car. In this case, as the tyres are directional, the rotation should be front to back and not in an "X" pattern. With the vehicle still on the ground, loosen the wheel nuts.

The YouTuber has applied insulating tape to the socket to avoid scratching the wheel. Check the exact point where the jack should be placed, as it varies for each car. The jack provided is not suitable for this type of operation, as it is designed only for changing a tyre, and nothing else.

Place support columns under the vehicle, then remove the tyres: take this opportunity to clean the inside and outside of the wheel rim, the brake caliper, and the wheel arch. Check the thickness of the disc - which should be replaced every two times you change the pads - and clean it with a suitable cleaner.

Refit the tyre by reversing the steps you took earlier, then proceed with the other side.

Once unlocked, tilt the seat upwards and forwards to remove it from its position. Repeat this process for both sides of the rear seat.
