$50 to rotate tires? Good Lord! I can get 4 tires mounted, balanced and installed for $40 in my area. Most shops in my area charge less than $20 to rotate 4 tires.
Most shops who put your tires on rotate for free. It's easy enough to do so I've never bothered them but ya, criss cross the fronts to the rear, rears straight up. It says in the owners manual too if you forget.
i can see the rears going straight forward, but if you have directional tires how would the crossing the fronts to the rears work out? because the tread would be the wrong way.....
I just decided to do mine myself . Mainly , Just to save a few bones . But, mostly just to protect my wheels . Id rather not let a guy with an impact near them. I know there going to get dings or what not . but, I'd like to prolong it .
