Tire Rotation

I have a '14 Camaro 2SS convertible. I never had a car with different front and back off set wheels. Do you rotate these tires in any fashion? Thanks for helping me with my ingorance.

Manual says left to right, and that's good advice. I rotated mine @ 6k miles.

+1 you can rotate them left to right unless you buy aftermarket directional tires and then no rotation.

This.

There shouldn't be a need to rotate them, anyway, unless you notice wear on just the outside or inside of the tire.

Rotating left to right does not make sense. No advantage ..still turning on the same outside edge.

That's how I see it too. And as stated, most replacement tires in the stock sizes are directional, so those can't be rotated anyway.

OP sweet 2SS! Great color, the tire off set is small but annoying enough to cause tire rotational problems. Only left to right!
