    This set I've just been rotating front to back. Last set I did back straight up to front, front cross to back. You can cross them if you want it doesn't matter, all that matters is the tire is mounted on the wheel correctly. The tire will say this side out. Remember the tires are asymmetrical so the drivers side will make a different tread pattern in the snow than the passenger side. Crossing the tires makes them a lot louder at highway speeds.

    I rotate mine every 5k (oil change interval). Front straight to the back and crisscross the back to the front.

    Haha the owners manual says the opposite of that. The front get crossed to the rear.

    No, adams right.... that was a brainfart on my part. Back go straight to the front.

    Its the opposite for front wheel drive cars. You dont cross the tires coming off the drive axle so the tread gets smoothed out.
