Default Rotating Auto-X Tires ( Non Uni-Directional )

I have a set of non uni-directional Khumo auto-x tires ( on a second set oh wheels ). I'll be swapping my streets for my auto-x'ers tomorrow night for Saturday's auto-x. I was thinking about swapping the wheels that I have on my left with the wheels I have on my right to even out tire ware.

My question is, is it that simple? As long as I keep the rears on the back and the fronts on the front it shouldn't matter right?

Thanks -- Tom

Curious to know why they are not wearing evenly. Is this due to the specific courses you are running, alignment, etc.?

I swap mine side to side for each event. Don't think it's a problem. Mine seem to be wearing pretty evenly.

Josh, I'm not having any particular problem with wear. Just figured since you normally rotate tires on a car ( a car with same size non uni-direction tires ) to keep wear even that I would do it on the auto-x tires.

BTW - Josh, how about coming down to E-Town Saturday, or is there an event at the Meadowlands on Sunday.

Mack - Thanks I didn't think there would be a problem.
