mtnsubie Posted November 5, 2005 Share Posted November 5, 2005 I did a search and didn't find anything on this and, honestly I didn't read the manual. So, I ask the question here. Do we rotate our tires? I have an '05 Legacy Wagon. If we do rotate, how often? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PhilT Posted November 5, 2005 Share Posted November 5, 2005 You really should read the manual, tells you lots of interesting stuff, not just about tyres. Double Award Winning Legacy GT Wagon Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BrownBoy Posted November 5, 2005 Share Posted November 5, 2005 ill answer. YES. BUT, read the back of your owners manual. it has a chart w/ all recommended services/maintenance/intervals. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GardenWeasel Posted November 5, 2005 Share Posted November 5, 2005 The front ones go to the back. The back ones go to the front. Don't switch sides. This is supposed to be done every 7500 miles. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scotty Posted November 5, 2005 Share Posted November 5, 2005 It's in the supplemental manual. If you sign up on mysubaru.com, they have the service info available and can be set up to notify you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
golfmajic Posted November 6, 2005 Share Posted November 6, 2005 You better rotate your tires, I suggest every 5000 miles, just wait until you see how AWD eats tires! Good luck. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlkLegGt Posted November 6, 2005 Share Posted November 6, 2005 DO NOT rotate the RE92! I repeat...DO NOT rotate. They'll only last longer that way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
forestir Posted November 6, 2005 Share Posted November 6, 2005 DO NOT rotate the RE92! I repeat...DO NOT rotate. They'll only last longer that way. Agreed, we don't necessarily want them to last, but rotating tires is supposed to help keep the wear even, which should help the center diff as well.

Chief_Wiggum Posted November 7, 2005 Share Posted November 7, 2005 Here's some information from the tirerack: http://www.tirerack.com/tires/tiretech/techpage.jsp?techid=43 I use the method shown in diagram "C" every 5k miles.

Waxiboy Posted November 7, 2005 Share Posted November 7, 2005 Front tires steer and drive while rears just drive. I think you should rotate. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
