Tire rotation interval

[elPollero]

My Willys edition came with the Firestone MT’s.
How often y’all rotating them.
Had some cupping on the passenger side front at 6000 miles. Rotated them then and seem to even out.
About every 5000miles on MT about right?

i do them at each oil change. 3-5k should be fine. just my opinion

 

[shyoung1]

I've done all 4WD's at around 7500 miles, with great results.

i have same model and tires. Rotated them at 7500 and they are cupped like a mother. Hate the tires now. Loud as hell

 

[Rubi-Zero]

3-4K for MT’s

 

[NachoRuby]

I just do every oil change. I'm on ATs now. But I do remember the MTs my Rubicon came with got loud after about 10k

 

[WILDHOBO]

No more than 5k for me, and I do a 5 way.

Was gonna run these bald then upsize when it was buying time . They got better after rotating the first time at 6000. Just hit 12000 and rotated again today.
any suggestions on something quite in a 33”.
I like the look of the Mickey Thompson A/T
. I see a lot of BF Goodrich around here .
Not looking for aggressive off-road but more all terrain and good in snow .

I have the Mickey Baja boss A/T, but in 37’s. They’re fantastic in rain, snow and ice. 3 peak rated. Also great off road.

Oil change and tire rotation every 5k miles has worked well for me.

 

[zxd9]

5 tire rotation every 4-5k miles. My GrabberX3's are wearing great after 17k miles.

I just ordered Falken Rubitrek AT, they are supposed to be a little more road friendly than the Wildpeak AT and they are snow rated. I have the factory Falken MT and can't wait to change them out. My wife has the Wildpeak AT on her JLU so I'll be able to so a pretty good comparison. I wanted the Wildpeak AT, but couldn't find a deal on them, I got the 33" Rubitreks for 825.00 plus tax.

Since it seems like pretty much everyone agrees on the need for tire rotation, I wonder how most people are rotating the tires. Just front to back or cross rotation. I have always cross rotated my tires in order to let each tire run and wear in each position.

 

[WetWilly]

Cross rotate every time I service. I have old school habits and still service at 3,000 miles.

I do a five way with a standard cross for 4x4 vehicles. Here’s the pattern I use.
