    I'm not sure how often you used to rotate your tires, but now that you got a rotational tire that is also a potenza, do it twice as much.

    I would recommend atleast every 3-4k.

    Good to know, 3-4k seems a ot. I can bang that out in like two months what is the reason for the increased rotations?

    So just to be sure, youre running 04-08 rims on a 97-03? Because i would like to run the large chrome 5 spoke rims on my 99.

    You can only go front to back, you cant do the standard modified X pattern that almost everyone does to make the tires roll in the opposite direction to prevent odd wear patterns.

    So rotating front to back more helps slow down that process and if you drive semi aggresssive you may never have inner edge wear or cupping.
