Tyre rotation diagonally
Hi Castoy, Yeah I have a fair idea of how tyres are made seeing as I am speaking from 30 plus years of working in the tyre industry specialising in everything from racing tyres in the early 70's through to currently operating my own business training tyre servicing personnel in the automotive, truck and earthmover industries. My experience included many countless hours of disecting tyres (making several thin radially and longitudinal cross-sections) to analyse what had caused failures in the tyres, technical visits to tyre manufacturing facilities in Japan, Argentina and Australia (Bridgestone and Firestone) and currently 11 years in my own business training tyre fitters and also investigating motor vehicle accidents where tyre failure was a mitigating factor. I am not claiming that the tyre will definitely fail, only that I have known for warranties to be denied because of diagonal rotation and my philosophy is that I do not recommend diagonal rotation. Sorry if there is some confusion.
