Wheels, Rotating

WARNING: This page does not describe the selected car, but rather 9 other vehicles, including the 2018 Audi S6, 2018 Audi A6 Quattro, 2018 Audi A6, 2017 Audi S6, and 2017 Audi A6 Quattro. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.

A higher load is experienced on the front axles of FWD vehicles and as such, a higher tread wear is expected for the front tires.
In order for all four tires on the vehicle to have the same service life, it is recommended to rotate the front and rear wheels.
Be sure not to mix up tires that have a specified direction of rotation marked on them.
The longer the tire runs at one position, the more it wears at certain points, therefore, it is recommended to rotate the wheels at short intervals. Refer to Maintenance Intervals.
Diagonal rotation is possible only with non-directional tires. This wheel rotation is especially advantageous for heel-and-toe wear. Heel-and-toe wear. Refer to HEEL AND TOE WEAR .
If heel-and-toe wear has already progressed very far and the tread is more than 50% worn, only slight improvement can be achieved and rotation is no longer recommended. The elasticity of the tread blocks declines and the heel-and-toe wear does not progress.
