    tire rotation

    i know the book says not to rotate tires, but i find myself constantly fighting the urge to jack up my rover and rotate all my tires. any thoughts on whether or not to listen to the manual or just do what i want?

    In the 8 years I have own my Disco, I have rotated tires every 5k... I have never had an issue and tires normally last around 40 - 50k miles...

    So I say rotate them.

        I rotate every other oil change. Fronts go straight back and the backs swap sides to the front. Never any issues.

          You actually read the manual?

              actually suppose to be 992s... tried to rotate them but i found that i had tracking problems... either the rotation was wrong or i drank a few too many cold ones

              and i only read the book for the entertainment aspect and to look at the pictures of some of the scenic areas of england

              do you drive your truck around the block enough times to warrant rotating the tires?
