Tesla Maintenance Tip: Rotate Tires & Reset Service Alert

🔄 Tesla Tire Rotation Schedule

Tesla recommends rotating your tires every 6,250 miles (10,000 km) or when tread depth difference exceeds 2/32 inch (1.5 mm)—whichever comes first. This helps ensure even wear, especially since rear tires tend to wear faster due to torque distribution.

  • Model Y AWD: Use a cross-X pattern (front to opposite rear, rear to opposite front)
  • Model Y RWD: Use a front-to-rear and rear-to-front pattern without switching sides
