tire rotation
i have what may seem like a dumb question.i was on a 2 hour cruise today,highway and winding roads,saw many vettes and all waved back,great.i am running Michelin light truck m/s tires that have been very good to me.i don't recall any member saying that they rotated their tires.lack of miles or otherwise i am wondering if i should rotate mine.is it dependent on what tires you are running? any input on this would be greatly appreciated.are these cars any different in the way the tires wear?

I rotate the tires every 6000 miles, give or take, provided tire size and if they're non-directional permit to do so.

not to beat this to death but i see no arrows or anything else indicating rotation direction.these tires are no longer made in this size so i will soon be at the mercy of what ever is around.cooper??they may be slightly cupped.

Those don't look like directional tires. And if there was an arrow you would see it.

Stick with Michelin for your next set of tires. I have the Pilot Super Sports. A very popular tire and highly rated.

motorcycle, bicycle and some race tires made for operating in the rain have direction of rotation, most car tires do not.. rotational tires will have a tread pattern that will 'wick away' water

If you are not sure, stop into any big brand tire store. They can look them up, do a google search on line, or just rotate them front to rear like any directional tire and don't worry about it.
