Torched10 Posted December 5, 2010 Report Share Posted December 5, 2010 Tires need rotation, and am thinkiing of doing it myself to avoid scratching to my wheels.Does anyone know if rotating front to back would affect wheel balance--thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0201212 Posted December 5, 2010 Report Share Posted December 5, 2010 Rotating from front to back should not affect balance. The only concern I would have is if the front and rear are not the same size. If all tires are the same size then have it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CMG Posted December 5, 2010 Report Share Posted December 5, 2010 Hes correct. Unless you have changed tires to all same size rotation is not an option. Owners manual states however you can flip right and left tires if they are not directional. Im just not sure why you would want to, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OCD Posted December 5, 2010 Report Share Posted December 5, 2010 Rev it up and dump the clutch around 4000 rpm, that should rotate the rear tires just fine!! Sorry i'm not much help with the fronts... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DAH!!! youre right.I had ignored tire pressure,and was running low in the front,causing tire wear on the outside of the tire.Guess ill live with it,maybe just get alighment done just in case--thanks for input Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can think of one way to accomplish this feat ( = Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
