How to Install Your Wheel & Tire Package

It usually takes only minutes to install tires and wheels on your vehicle; but remember, they’ll probably be on for 3,000 miles or more, and will roll over a million times before it’s time to rotate them. To make those miles as pleasant as possible, you need to install your new Tire and Wheel Package correctly.

Check Tire Positions

If you selected directional tires and/or asymmetric tires, the first step before installing them is to match each tire and wheel to its final position on your vehicle. To prevent mistakes, actually set each wheel and tire around your vehicle just as race teams do for pit stops.

Install New Pairs or Tires on the Rear Axle

When tires are replaced in pairs, the new tires should always be installed on the rear axle and the worn tires moved to the front. The reason is because new tires on the rear axle help the driver more easily maintain control on wet roads because new, deeper treaded tires are more capable of resisting hydroplaning.

NOTE: If your vehicle uses two different tire sizes, be sure to alert your installer.
