Chevrolet Traverse Tire Rotation Pattern and Interval
Steps from the 2026 Chevrolet Traverse owner's manual.
- Rotate the tires at the interval given in the Maintenance Schedule, and sooner if you notice unusual wear.
- Inspect the brake pads for signs of wear while the wheels are off.
- Follow the rotation pattern shown in the manual's diagram, and leave the compact spare tire out of the rotation.
- Adjust front and rear tires to the pressure on the Tire and Loading Information label.
- Reset the Tire Pressure Monitor System.
- Check that all wheel nuts are properly tightened.
- The rotation pattern is a diagram on the page and is not described in the text, so the tire-to-position moves are not given here.
- The first rotation is the most important.
- Lightly coat the inner diameter of the wheel hub opening with wheel bearing grease after a rotation.
