Re: Tire Rotation
That isn't necessarily true. Tire Rack themselves recommends alternate
rotation patterns... BUT their first advice is to read your owner's
manual. http://www.tirerack.com/tires/tirete....jsp?techid=43
Dunno about your Jeep, but the FSM for mine explicitly says to do front
to back rotation only due to the wear patterns. Some tire vendors will
also recommend against side swapping, e.g. asymmetric treaded tires like
some of the Pirelli 4x4 series.

Re: Tire Rotation
Most of them do not recommend that anymore. And none of them suggest that
not crossing them is a bad thing.
There is nothing wrong with crossing them unless there is a specific reason
not to, ie.: directional tires. But when there is any doubt, there is
nothing wrong with keeping the left tires on the left side and the right
tires on the right side. Many automakers these days suggest that rotating
tires is not necessary at all. If one has to ask, what is the correct way to
rotate tires, this person can be told to keep them on the same side and
he'll get through his life just fine.

not crossing them is a bad thing.
There is nothing wrong with crossing them unless there is a specific reason
not to, ie.: directional tires. But when there is any doubt, there is
nothing wrong with keeping the left tires on the left side and the right
tires on the right side. Many automakers these days suggest that rotating
tires is not necessary at all. If one has to ask, what is the correct way to
rotate tires, this person can be told to keep them on the same side and
he'll get through his life just fine.

Re: Tire Rotation
Most of them do not recommend that anymore. And none of them suggest that
not crossing them is a bad thing.
There is nothing wrong with crossing them unless there is a specific reason
not to, ie.: directional tires. But when there is any doubt, there is
nothing wrong with keeping the left tires on the left side and the right
tires on the right side. Many automakers these days suggest that rotating
tires is not necessary at all. If one has to ask, what is the correct way to
rotate tires, this person can be told to keep them on the same side and
he'll get through his life just fine.
