2018 Subaru Brz Tires in Thornton, CO | Mike Shaw Subaru

The published maintenance schedule for this model calls for inspecting and rotating the wheels and tires every 7,500 miles. Driving conditions and tire wear can also make an inspection useful sooner. The service team can compare all four tires and recommend the next step.

• Rotation helps distribute different front and rear wear.
• All four tires receive a tread-depth measurement.
• The tire pressure monitoring system is reset after pressure is set.

The inspection looks at each tire rather than treating the set as one unit. Findings determine whether rotation is appropriate or whether replacement should be discussed. This process can address uneven wear and help identify a tire that needs closer attention.

• Tread depth is measured on all four tires.
• Rotation follows the drivetrain-specific manufacturer guidance.
• Pressure and the tire pressure monitoring system are checked afterward.

The specific arrangement can change when tires have directional tread or when the vehicle has a staggered fitment. Those details must be checked during service rather than assumed. The technician can select the appropriate manufacturer-specified pattern after inspecting the tires and their positions.

• Rear-wheel drive affects how the tires wear.
• Directional tread can limit where a tire may move.
• Staggered fitments can change the permitted rotation options.

An inspection compares tread wear and checks for visible concerns across the set. On a two-wheel-drive vehicle, the replacement decision can differ from an all-wheel-drive vehicle because a mismatched tread depth can load an all-wheel-drive driveline. The actual tires and service history help determine the appropriate recommendation here.

• Measure tread depth on every tire before deciding.
• Look for uneven wear or a tread indicator level with the tread.
• Consider how replacement tires will match the remaining set.

A failed penny test is another reason to request a professional evaluation. These signs do not identify the exact replacement decision by themselves, so the service team should measure all four tires and examine their condition. The recommendation is based on what the inspection finds.

• Check for uneven wear across the tire set.
• Pay attention to vibration at highway speed.
• Have a tire inspected when its molded tread indicator reaches the tread surface.

The visit includes tread-depth measurements on all four tires and a rotation or replacement recommendation based on the findings. Mike Shaw Subaru is at 1650 W 104th Avenue, Thornton, CO 80234. You can also review current service specials before scheduling.
