In case of clearly pronounced strong wear of the front tires, it is recommended to swap the front wheels with the rear ones. As a result, all 4 wheels will have approximately the same service life.
Safety instructions
Do not replace the wheels individually, in extreme cases, replace both wheels of one axle at once. In this case, tires with a deeper tread profile should always be installed on the front axle. On one axle, install only tires from the same manufacturer and with the same tread pattern. Tires that are more than six years old should only be installed as a last resort, being careful during the trip. Do not use any used tires whose history is unknown. When changing rims or tubeless tyres, it is imperative for safety reasons to replace the rubber valve on the tire.
Tires with a tread pattern that allows rotation in only one direction have the direction of rotation indicated by an arrow on the sidewall, in which case the prescribed direction of rotation must be maintained. This guarantees optimal tire performance in terms of aquaplaning, traction, noise and wear rate.
If the spare wheel has to be installed so that it will rotate against the direction indicated by the arrow, then this position of the wheel should be temporary. It is especially important to remember this when driving on wet surfaces and choose the speed according to the quality of the road.
