Perellli tire rotation
- Thread starter Zermus
- Start date
I’ve always felt that assuming the tires aren’t directional and the rims are the same width that it’s back to front and rears cross rotated to front at somewhere around the 3000 mile interval. You can of course do the opposite of that but just remember what you’re doing each time, either way the tires will spend roughly the same amount of time at each positon.

For what it's worth: your tires are the only contact you have with the ground. Directional tires go front to back on the same side. Staggered tires need to be replaced and don't intermix tire brand or kind...trust the engineers that the tires should match. Non-directional tires can be cross rotated per manufacturer specs. If tread wear is going to compromise stopping distance or contact patch, new tires are cheaper than body work and/or an accident. Buy the best tire you can afford because that is where the rubber meets the road;-)

Buy a tool like this: https://www.amazon.ca/gp/product/B07ZH2VWKD
That one is Ford and GM because I have both, and use it for my Chevy and Explorer. Cheap device, but works great.
You can either purchase that exact one, or buy one that works on just Ford. There are other tools like it out there, but that brand is highly recommended.
