Any problems with side to side Pirelli rotation?

I believe 2013's need the tpms reset with a tool, unlike the 2010. Iirc, I read a thread where someone took their car to a national tire store and they reset it for free.

Thanks Bubba.

I gonna do some Googlin' and see what I can come up with. Maybe I can find a place that will do the alignment, rotation, and have a relearn tool to boot.

The manual (for my 2013 anyway) recommends rotating every 8K miles, so you should be on your 4th rotation about now. I would be concerned about the uneven wear and doubt you can do anything now to rectify that by simply rotating - you may have some sort of problem that a good tire shop should look at.

Not sure about your car, but my TPMS requires a "relearn tool". Being the thrifty person that I am, I just left them alone. They work fine - I just have to remember when a left side tire reads low, it's really the right side tire that needs air. No problems so far.

I rotate my tires when I change the oil/filter... every 5K miles.

+1, and I too do the same thing

No, it doesn't. '13s need the relearn tool and I wasn't going to drop $70+ on one.

Yep, lucky us...2013 needs the tool. I bought a set of winter wheels and tires from tirerack, and added the relearn tool to my order, so I have one. If anyone on Long Island ever needs to reset their TPMS, drop me a PM, we'll get it done. Took longer to write this post than it does to set the TPMS.

No. Read the topic.

I'm impressed that your tires aren't gone. I have 22k on mine and I had to order new tires today, my front tires are balled

You'll be fine rotating side to side.

All gm vehicles made after a certain date in 2011 require the tool too do the relearn. Check with your dealer. mine does the relearn for free. takes only a few min.

You can probably get a good tire shop to do it for a couple bucks (or free), or your dealer should help you out. I just left mine alone after rotating so, for now... left means right/right means left. I'll be rotating them again in about a month. Then, they will be back to correct locations and I won't have to "relearn" them. No big deal.
