Just something I do........................

Snows go on when temps are below 7c in the morning when I go to work.

And i only buy unidirectional tires.. So I always stack my tires front/rear. Rear in the bottom. So I know that I have to put the top at the rear in spring.

This is going to be my first winter with directional snow tires (Blizzak ws 70s). How often do you rotate front to back? Just once every winter?

I'm a little bit concerned with tire wear because of how you can't switch them left to right. I'm recently lowered on Tein S springs, and I had a legitimate alignment done (went into the shop and got to watch the tech do it), but I'm still a bit apprehensive in regards to my front tires getting some uneven wear.

As long as you don't have any toe, you should be pretty good with wearing. My rears are wearing a bit on the inside. I am unsure if that is caused by the camber I have on the rear or maybe there is some toe.


I only rotate front/back after the season since I don't drive that much. Even if you drive average mileage (20k km) a year, then you don't need to rotate mid-season.
