For example, the engine and heavy weight is in the front. So, if the front tires aren\u2019t rotated to the back they will wear irregularly and start feathering \u2013 which are lips that create tire noise.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Tire rotations not only protect your tires, they also allow us to take a look at the brakes. Additionally, our technicians are able to move the lug nuts, where corrosion tends to develop, and check anything else that the tires are hiding.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Our courtesy inspections<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">We provide free tire rotations during oil changes, which we suggest having done <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/hometowneautorepairandtireofwoodbridge.com\/blog\/why-oil-changes-important\/\">every 3,000 to 5,000 miles<\/a><\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">A free courtesy inspection is performed, as well. During this check, we look at the car battery, lights and other components.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">While working on a vehicle, our techs complete digital inspections that provide details, photos and videos of any needed repairs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Customers may access the inspection via text or email.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">HomeTowne Auto Repair &amp; Tire is an authorized Michelin and BFGoodrich tire dealer located in Woodbridge, Virginia. Automotive repair services are performed on all makes and models, including oil changes, brakes, alignments, inspections, and computer engine diagnostics.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>As a car owner, you are an investor \u2013 you invest in oil changes, needed parts and new tires.
