Why do I need to get a Ram 1500 tire rotation?

Tire rotations are essential to increasing the longevity of your Ram 1500’s tires. When you drive, the tires on your front and rear axles perform at different loads and operate with different steering, driving, and braking. This makes them wear unevenly, decreasing the longevity of your tires.
If you want the tires on your Ram 1500 to last longer, you must routinely rotate your tires. This is especially true on tires with more complicated tread designs, such as all-season tires. Routine rotation will increase your traction in extreme weather conditions, such as rain, sleet, and snow, increase tread life, and help make a smooth, quiet ride.

How often do I need a tire rotation for my Ram 1500?

At the first sign of irregular wear, you should rotate the tires. The 2022 Ram 1500’s Owner’s Manual suggests changing the tires at every oil change, as indicated by the oil change indicator system. When you go in for any service, we recommend asking your service technician to go ahead and check the wear on your tires to see if they need to be rotated. More frequent rotation will only help the longevity of your tires.

What method of tire rotation should I use?

The rotation method can also impact the longevity of your tires. It can vary based on the type of vehicle your drive, i.e., if it is FWD, RWD, or 4WD. The 2022 Ram 1500 Owner’s Manual suggests asking for the rearward cross rotation method. If you are unsure this applies to your Ram, be sure to consult with a service advisor at Dan Cummins Auto Group beforehand to work on a tire rotation pattern.

What are the different tire types?

Different tires are designed for specific purposes. To keep you safe, you need to choose tires that are suitable for the driving conditions in your area. Some tire types, and why each may be a good pick for your Ram 1500, are:

• All-terrain tires – These tires have an aggressive tread pattern, with large tread blocks to give you better handling in off-road driving conditions. All-terrain tires also provide highway stability. If you drive a Ram 1500 TRX, all-terrain tires come standard.
• Mud-terrain tires – These tires have an even more aggressive tread pattern than all-terrain tires. These are great for soft mud and sand terrains because they give traction and grip. They also feature reinforced sidewalls, which prevent punctures and holes in the tires from driving off-road.
• Sport truck tires – These tires have all-season, asymmetrical tread patterns that are great for most driving conditions.

These are just a few examples of tires you could potentially use for your Ram 1500. Consult with your expert Ram service advisor at Dan Cummins Auto Group CDJR to figure out what type of tires would be best for your truck.

Why do I need wheel balancing for my Ram 1500?

Wheel balancing is a vital service for all vehicles. If there is an uneven distribution of weight between your Ram’s four wheels, you need wheel balancing. When you ask for a wheel balancing service at Dan Cummins Auto Group CDJR, we use a tire balancing machine to spin the tire and wheel and determine the imbalance. Then, your factory-certified service technician will know the right tire weights to balance the tires.
For $39.95, at Dan Cummins Auto Group CDJR, we offer a Wheel Balance Service where we check the tire pressures & adjust them as necessary, balance all four tires, rotate the tires, inspect the tires and wheels for wear or damage, and torque the wheel nuts as recommended.
If wheel imbalance goes un-fixed, it can lead to vibration, decreased longevity of your tire, suspension damage, and increased tire wear. To schedule a wheel balancing service today in Paris, KY, click here, or in Georgetown, KY, click here.
