How to PROPERLY Rotate Your Tires

- In this video, I go over the proper way to rotate your wheels and tires. There are many different vehicles with various drivetrains, and I go into detail as to which tire would go where, should you do a tire rotation on essentially every car.
Something extra to note is that if you are running directional tires, you can rotate them to the other side of the car, however you will have to dismount the tire, and switch it around so the tread is pointing in the proper direction.

I learned all these stuff through experience and reading manuals, forums and articles. Now, it's summed up to this short video. Amazing work.
30 yrs and you just now are rotating tires. I don’t buy any if it lol
@@plxh6408 What are you talking about??
@@HF1.0 he means he can’t believe someone who’s been living for 30 + yrs, is just now rotating tires.
Solid. Quick. To the point. The 1% of youtube instructional videos. Great job.
When TH-cam was in it's prime
Definitely from the good days of TH-cam.
I was searching for how to do 2 at once on a fwd with 2 jacks..safely...because I'm the Queen of cutting corners. Appears there is no shortcut for me today lol
I've been working on my own (and wife's) cars for 30 years, this is one of the best DIY videos that I've seen. Well done!
STEVE HOLT!
This is one of the most informative DIY videos I have ever seen, as well as being very simple to understand. I am beginning to teach my son (he turns five in a couple days) about cars and I think this is a perfect starter mini-project to introduce him to working on cars as it is not a hard concept to understand. Good work and thanks for the great video.
Glad it was helpful! Thanks Thomas
Bless your heart for this video.
I came in with zero vehicle knowledge. The comprehensive context you gave provided me not only with instructions on how to rotate the tires for my own vehicle but added to my burgeoning, overall understanding on the topic, like the types of wheel setups (eg, staggered) and SOP for measuring tread wear (1/32, etc.).
Thanks for helping building my knowledge base from both a top down and bottom up perspective. Nowadays, information is, ironically, hyper-specialized (eg, separate videos for each tire setup) or too generalized (no videos on any setup but the basic FWD/unstaggered).
Keep on imparting your knowledge and sharing any asides you have. You've got a new sub and all video notifications are on! Can't wait to see what you post next.
I swear, you've been answering many questions that I've had regarding maintenance for my car. You rock!
Thanks buddy!! :) Glad its helpful for ya
Awesome educational vids you're making!!! Very well done. Clear and precise. Keep it coming.
These consistent video uploads is awesome! Keeps me from being bored and fulfill my automotive mechanic needs (somewhat) 😂
Good to hear buddy :)
Bro, awesome video. To the point, no bs. Vloggers like you are rare, who deliver the content so sharp and make it so easy.
Bro I Go to UTI and you explained it 10 times better than there shitty video literally stressing for there test and you just saved me 3 more hours of studying thank you saved me
Very clear & concise. Good job with editing too. Thanks!
Great video!..Super Informative, Straight to the point. 👍
ok, these tires and wheels videos are really great. you helped me a lot, man.
No problem buddy :)
Well explained and easy to watch, thank you!
Very thorough and easy to understand, great video!! Thanks brother 💪🏼👍🏻
Nice video. Production values are very professional.
Amazingly clear video! Thanks!
Everything I needed to know or wanted to know without taking the time to research this topic! Thank you so much Milo, your coverage on your channel is fantastic and I speak for everyone in your audience, subscribed or not, thank you! You do a great job and you should keep doing what you are doing
Thanks Cody :) Couldn't ask any more from an awesome subscriber!!
+milanmastracci I hope that's okay shortening your name, sorry I didn't think twice
+milanmastracci hey bro i have a wuestion for you?? i bought new tires to my 2014 ford fusion Ecoboost at 42,500 miles and i did a tire rotation at 50,400 miles on my odometer i have clock in 52,300 miles and they aren't even the technician told me to rotate the tires at 54,000 miles os that correct or not bro am comfused 😕 should i rotate the tires at 55,000 miles? please let me know..
+milanmastracci sorry i mean a have a question for you lol
Great video. very informational. Thanks.
Great video! More often than not, Fwd and Rwd vehicles need to be rotated as if they’re an Awd because of tire feathering/sawtooth wear patterns caused by slight issues with alignment and with some tire brands just wearing evenly but in a sawtooth pattern on inside and outside tire shoulders.
The longer the tire stays in one position and the wider the gaps between the tread blocks, the deeper the pattern will get, the louder the tire becomes. Everyone has heard the “monster” truck going down the road with this issue. Occasionally a tire pull will reveal itself from rotating tires this way, but that just means the tire is defective and very rare on a vehicle that regularly gets alignment checks. Many $30k+ vehicles built in the last 5 years have drift/pull compensation built-in to the steering systems
Great job, and super clear and helpful bro ! Bravo !
Nice breakdown first time I heard someone putting the full size spare in the rotation I like that
Nice! Remember when i was a kid, the tire guys told me they are the only people can do a tire rotation, i try to explain to other people, but now i send your video, i can't explain, i get pissed very quick
Great video! Well done, well explained.
Great video, man! Just one question, how would I measure the tire wear mentioned in the video and what would I use to do it? Regardless of that though, thank you for making this, it’s really helped me a lot in starting my journey.
Great video. Very thorough.
Well explained.You answered my question.Thanks a lot
excellent video man ... excellent!
one request for novice DIYers, could you please make a detailed video on how to properly remove and put back wheels safe and secure
again keep it up!!!
Yeah I can do that for sure :)
Perfect video how to rotate tire. Thank you
Perfect, well explained.
Appreciate the video. Good work.
Best tire rotation video on TH-cam
Thanks dude!
Best car tutorial I've yet to find, subscribed! (:
Excellent thank you for sharing!!!!!!!!!
Been here since about 10,000. Love your stuff
Thanks man!! :)
You only mentioned about tire rotation....some guys buy thier tires with out knowing whether the tire is directional or assymetrical. You should also explain how to rotate a tire with directional or assymetrical tire. Thanks!
Actually he already covered those topic before about directional or non.... and many more.. keep the good work Milan.
See the picture bottom left at 5:23
excellent video!
I'm a lube tech at Honda and i just graduated automotive school, i don't want to sound like i know everything because i don't. But i do tire rotations all the time at work, and I've always done then front to back and visa-versa without having to worry if they're directional or not. I never knew these methods of rotating tires so thank you! Now ill use this for my own benefit to make my own tires last :)
Maybe a late reply but i don't think it makes much difference to be honest
Great video
Great video. Thanks so much.
I'm glad you enjoyed it :)
Thanks for explaining that
Thanks for the chart
Great explanation man
Thanks Cole :)
For an easy reference i use at work. Tires cross to where the power is suqpplied to. IE FWD, RWD etcc
Thank you!!!
Can you make a video showing the connections for the reverse signal and speed signal wires on your head unit please
Myman. Your extremely thorough and
My Lexus IS300 has two different size tires on it from the dealership. Well they told me there was no way I could rotate my tires. I’m glad this video proves them wrong! Also I have an AWD SUV, do you have any videos showing how to jack up and use jack stands when you need to rotate all the tires around. It would seem to me the whole vehicle would have to be off the ground to do that right?
nice👌 I had no idea how to rotate the tires
Well there ya go :)
thanks man!
If you don't have a full size spare, this is for a van with 4 identical tires, do you recommend getting one and adding it into regular rotation? Will that keep the cost down over the long run? Thanks! Great video!
Thank you very much
Great content! Just stumbled upon your channel, you got a new subscriber in me 👍🏽
Welcome Eddie!!
Thank you~
Nice. Thanks. 👍
Well explained 👌🤗
Thank you 🙂
Thank You.
Nice video
What kind of bottle jacks are these and it seems like a good way to get the whole car up. Using a flat jack currently.
Very informative 👏
Glad you liked it!
Make a video on clutch replacement!
Thank you! I understand better about tire rotation
Glad it was helpful!
Should have mentioned things like your drive wheels wear faster and that your front wheels wear on the edges from turning. Otherwise, great video!
Thanks Kid!
For staggered setups, rotating them side by side.. Do you need to unmount the tire? or simply just switch the wheel side to side
thanks man
Thank you
Went from a lot of rwd vehicles and always thought swap back to front on same side. Now i realize fwd has a different pattern.
I always rotate my tires front to back and back to front on the same side I never crossed them over, never had a problem with my tires and they last for many many years. But I tore a tendon on my rotor cuff so I couldn't rotate my tires, so I took it in and they rotated it, found out they crossed over my tires to the other side and the truck never drove the same it kept shimming like the tires was out of balanced. And they was really surprised why my tires lasted over 5 years with that many miles on it. I don't care what anybody says I rotate my tires front to back on the same side works fine for me.
RWD, FWD or AWD? Thx.
@@melrobinson6919 RWD
GOOD.
The vidoe was nice
Great vid as usual, interesting thing to note though: My WRX says to to move the front tires to the back and cross the rears to the front like the FWD setup you have.
Is your WRX FWD biased? So its essentially a FWD car until it needs the extra power from the rear?
I only am aware of my current WRX and STI but they are not FWD biased as the AWD system on my 2015 WRX is 50/50 power always. The STI actually has 41/59 with a DCCD Controller that lets you lock the center differntial to play with the torque split even more. Interestingly enough, both manuals say to rotate the tires in that FWD fashion. From my understanding Subaru's AWD system co-exists with the fact that the boxer engine is symmetrical, enabling the transfer case to sit right in with the transmission giving it that Symmetrical AWD drivetrain. Towing a WRX/STI with its front end off the ground completely annihilates the drivetrain :(.
I was curious to see what the Lancer Evo's tire rotation and in their owner's manual it's the same pattern of the two front going straight to the back and then crossing the rear tires when the move up to the front. Haha weird eh? I took a snapshot for you - i.imgur.com/Cu4qzw7.png (Left is the EVO X's manual and the right is the WRX/STI)
I always wondered about the electronic tire pressure gouges in the wheels, do these automatically switch the signals so that the rear tire now displays on the front tires when you rotate? Or is that a setting somewhere you can do?
Qualified mechanic here, very useful information! This hasn’t even been tought in school. Insane!
Glad you enjoyed it!
Because it’s a waste of time to do , my tires on my van have virtually exact wear all around after 25,000 km
@@MrSpaceace1999 do you have 4x4?
What about cars example. My Hyundai Santa Fe is Awd. But it’s primarily front wheel drive. As soon as slippage occurs the back wheels engage. You also have the option to switch button awd. I would assume I would use the front wheel drive tire rotation? What do u think?
champ. thanks
what if we have a fwd with a spare tire ??? I understand a little what you teach but it is better than nothing. .. and I share all of your videos bcz they are awesome. ... stay blessed buddy.......
Do you have a full sized tire? It has to be rated for use, not just a small spare that is rated for no more than 80 km/h and no more than 100 km's from a shop.
milanmastracci yep of course buddy I have a brand new tire....
Hi master, I have accidentally done a rearward crossing on my front wheel driven car, to correct my mistake do I just swap the front tires left to right and same for the rear wheels to a forward cross ?
Excellent video, very clear speech, easy to understand, even very clear examples! Good work 😆
What if you have 4x4 but are only use 2wd (rear) 90% of the time? Still left to right/right to left X cross, or bring back to front and change sides of front tires to the back?
Running 235/40-18 on front of my 09 Accord Coupe and 255/40-18 on the back so I gotta do the staggered method…. Quick question are your fenders rolled?
Thanks for you video! However, you only showed rotation with a spare for 4WD. How about the FWD, RWD, and directional tread scenarios?
Directional tires can only be rotated from back to front and front to back. The direction of the directional arrow needs to stay the same as driving forwards
I have an Acura TSX 2011, I should rotate my wheels the same way you rotate you honda accord?
Perfect explanation, paper drawings are best
I'm glad you think so! 👊
What about RWD with a full size spare? would you use the 4WD rotation even if it's a RWD?
what if you have all wheels the same size and front wheel drive vehicle? Can you do the fwd rotation as well as any of the same sized wheel rotation?
Just took a snap shot of diagram. Thanks
It’s awesome because I’m do a tire rotation on the same car as his
So I'm no longer using OEM tires on my Toyota Corolla. The owners manual says to change it the directional tire method. I could ignore that now and do a standard FWD rotation?
should i move each tyre and rim as a set, or keep the rim and move the rubber? because the second is not a job for my yard...
I have a question I have a front wheel drive why can’t I cross the front wheels to the back?
you can.
Question:
What’s the properly rotation for Nissan Titan non directional tires?
Brilliant! Clear, concise and easy to follow, you’ve earned my Subscription!
So, rotating your tires is literally just switching your tires around? I always thought mechanics were literally rotating the tire/spinning it in circles. I thought it was some scam, because like I have heard people say, your tires already spin while driving. It just did not make sense to me. Also add in the fact, I always get told that this is a very complicated thing that only mechanics can do with special tools. I'm going to start rotating my own tires now.
On my 2016 civic I was doing it opposite.. It's front real drive but when I do it my two back tires come forward and two front wheels crosses my manual doesn't say how to do a tire rotation
The only way you can do this cross rotation for FWD is to remove the tires from the rims and the do this in order to get tge right movement rotation of the tire
hi when rotation the tires will also need to exchange the rims?
My 4x4 2023 Grand Cherokee manual shows your first pattern (FWD) as a correct way to rotate my tires.
Seeing the threads on your wheels I must ask, is that really safe?
But as always, nice video! Learnt something as always
And you missed the last (horrible) combination. Staggered And directional. You can't do sh*t then ^^
