The old bias ply tires had the argument of whether or not to figure 8 or not but since the radial it's been pretty standard to save the figure 8 for uneven wear patterns,. ----- Original Message ----- From: NLG To: [email protected] Sent: Sunday, March 01, 2009 10:07 PM Subject: Re: [BlindHandyMan] Rotating Tyres
Max might be thinking about a dirrectional tire. Like some of the 4x4 off roaders run. ----- Original Message ----- From: Bob Kennedy To: [email protected] Sent: Sunday, March 01, 2009 9:42 PM Subject: Re: [BlindHandyMan] Rotating Tyres Since the radial tire, front to back is the recommended way unless the start to cup or you are correcting for a bad alignment. Radials recommend figure 8 for those problems. ----- Original Message ----- From: Max Robinson To: [email protected] Sent: Sunday, March 01, 2009 9:15 PM Subject: Re: [BlindHandyMan] Rotating Tyres There are some kind of tires that have to always stay on the same side of the car. You can't figure 8 those tires. Regards. Max. K 4 O D S.
