I forgot to rotate my tires at 7500 miles!

I cant belive I forgot about this...now wonder my fronts are getting worn quickly. Im at 8800 miles and forgot to rotate at 7500 miles. Im gonna call acura 2morrow to get this done, does anyone know how much it will cost? How many miles should I expect to lose from rotating them 1300 miles later? Also If I did an oil change at 4100 miles, and I want to change at 11,600 miles, should I just do another change at 15k mile as well to get back to the 7500 interval schedule?

lol, sorry guys Im only 16 and I dont have much money to spend, so Im hoping to keep these tires as long as I can, but the way I drive I dont know how long they will last anyhow. I will just call Acura tomorrow and get it done there. $15-$20 wont kill me.

fuck maybe i should start my own rotate your tire business.

seems like lots of people dont mind paying 15-20 bucks to rotate tires. hmm 10 dollar per car, at least 5 cars an hour from 9-7 thats about 500 bucks a day.

not bad for manual labor and a jack stand with air tools and a torque wrench

My dealer charges $40, it also includes re-balancing two front tires and some other BS inspections.

I got my tires rotated once at Mr. Tire for like $5. They've since sent me 2 reminder notices that my car is due for its next free tire rotation. So I guess once you've paid for the first rotation, the rest are free. Not sure if they're nationwide or just local though.

OMG! You MISSED the 7500 mile tire rotation? This, is not good.

This completely VOIDS the warranty on the entire car! Watch for parts to start dropping off, and the body will now start acting like it was manufactured out of compressed rust!

We RESPONSIBLE CLS owners would NEVER allow this to happen! In fact, you have probably driven our resale value down to new lows. IF WE KNEW WHERE YOU ARE, WE WOULD MAKE YOU PAY FOR THIS!

C'mon. Missed by 1,300 miles. Big deal. Just funnin' with ya.
