First season running R-Comps. Had my first flog of them last weekend. I'm wondering what is the best patern to rotate these? Simple front to back?

What do others do?

Cheers,

Paul

 

no one?

I move them around front to back and side to side, but always keeping them paired up. (same two tires are always on the same end of the car). I don't worry about rotation direction, although the tread blocks will feather if you always run the on the same side of the car, making them very squirrelly if you forget and switch sides accidentally.

Hope that helps.

 

I have victoracers and plan to rotate them regularly. Probably each day out Autocrossing. With the intent to keep the wear as even as possible.
Since the wear rating is 50 these are not for street use so the 3000 miles before each rotation rule doesn't apply. Do it more often, check for wear that is uneven. Balance the tires and keep the inflation up at correct levels to maximize your contact patch.

What pattern to rotate? Ask alex@tirerack.com and see what he recommends. whether normal four wheel pattern or just front to back.

Here is a good thread on tire rotation in general-
