Me. My wheels per unit is 250 myr that lasts a very long time (I live in sarawak where the furthers place I'll drive is 30 minutes away). I replace my tires when I feel the steering to be sluggish or driving becomes bumpier eventhough I pump air into it.

Donno how much you pay for rotation but is it really worth it bringing to workshop to do it every 10km?

if your car 2wd then worth to do alignment + rotation

balancing no need do unless u feel your steering vibrating at highway/speed


every 10k do rotation + alignment

so that u wont hit into uneven wearing in the long run

not really expensive ..about 40 bucks depending on car for alignment


if your car is 4wd then rotation might not needed

That article is from 2004, I'm guessing back then they were still using the same size tires front and back. Would have been strange to mention that otherwise.

dont be so high can or not. quote an article for ICE, and its BMW. You dont know they come in staggered tyre size? Front and rear different size. You can't even rotate left and right.

I've clocked more than 1+ million mileage in all my cars. When you do spirited drives, and care about handling & grip, it makes a difference.
When I don't do it, the tyre wear is uneven. Of course, if you driving cars on cheap tyres, not really worth it, but I tend to use performance tyres, so it's important.

2004 article, read first. You sure old/all BMWs use asymmetrical tire sizes? Fwd 1 series also have bigger rear tires?

If you dunno tire rotation is required every 10,000km, then you are a useless car owner when it comes to maintaining your car.

No, for FWD, no need to do so, New tires always go the back, let the front one wear off first. This will surely prevent overstreer

If I was a driver in Thailand or west Malaysia where you can drive 4 hours on a smooth highway yes it's a worthwhile investment. But where I'm from... Totally not worth it
