Default Rotating tires..Falken Azenis

I'm running the Falken azenis assemetrical tires and was wondering what would be better for tire rotation....Should I just rotate front to back or should I rotate by doing the "X" (front left to rear right,front right to rear left, etc.) Thanks for anyones help in advance.

Front to back is fine...if you do the traditional diagonal rotation, you'll have to get the tires removed and remounted/balanced.

They are assymetrical, Not Directional. Meaning you can only mount them one way. There is a Definite Outside and inside for the tire.

As for rotating them, just do the usual cross pattern.

if you look in the manual it says front to back for directional tires and crisscross for non directyional tires.

For more information read Tirerack's Guide
For the Azenis - Asimmetrical


But for the RE010s Directional
