Stoopid question about rotating tires.
I lost my Tire Rack brochure on my tires. I have 16 inch B.F. Goodrich T/A s.
Do these get rotated front to back or x-wise?

I don't know but, if the tire is directional, it will have a arrow showing "Rotation" and you can only rotate front to rear / rear to front.
If not directional, best way to rotate is front to rear / cross rears to front.

Either way, I would rotate every 3-5K miles.
