Certified Tire Rotation Logistics SpecialistCTRLS

Your car's four tires do not share the work equally. The front ones steer, the drive wheels push, and one pair usually wears out well before the other. Left alone, you end up buying tires in mismatched pairs and wondering why the car feels a little off.

This program sets out the professional standards of tire rotation: why it matters, which pattern your car needs, how to lift a car without trusting your life to a jack, and how to put everything back at the correct torque. Graduates will be able to read a sidewall, pick the right rotation pattern, and tighten lug nuts in a star instead of a circle.

What you'll learn

• Why tires wear unevenly and how often to rotate them
• Choosing the right pattern for front-, rear-, and all-wheel drive
• The tools you need and the safety rules that aren't optional
• A step-by-step rotation, from breaking lug nuts loose to final torque
• Checking pressure, tread depth, and wear patterns before you drive off
