5k wheel rotation

[Sam]

Missed my 5k rotation, now running into 8k now any issue? Need to find time to do wheel rotation...

[blackmercs]

No issue, drives till 10k for the rotation.

When my patient asks if it's ok to miss lunch & then eat dinner later becos he's too busy to eat....i'll say 'sure thing, but you are risking a gastritis episode'. Better to have a late lunch followed by a late dinner. Similarly...late rotation will give rise to greater uneven wear between the front & back. Go figure!

[Odessus]

When my client tells me if it's ok to miss my first payment and pay later together with my second payment... I'll just say no it's not ok. Plain and simple. Haha!

[blackmercs]

Quick go & get it rotate if u tresure yr life lolz.

[g8crasher]

Depends on how aggressive your alignment settings are as well. No major issues so not to worry.

[blackmercs]

Any expert here would like to share why See&See require 5k & not 10k for tyres rotation? The market practise is 10k for rotation is this necessary?

[blackmercs]

because they miss you and want to see you more often..

Muahahaha wet!! I got no cup!!

Tak chek - straight from the C Class manual..

Interchanging the front and rear wheels of differing dimensions can render the general operating permit invalid.

Always pay attention to the instructions and safety notices in the section on "Wheel changing and spare wheel fitting" more.

The wear patterns on the front and rear tyres differ, depending on the operating conditions. Interchange the wheels before a clear wear pattern has formed on the tyres. Front tyres typically wear more on the shoulders and the rear tyres in the centre.

On vehicles that have the same size front and rear wheels, you can interchange the wheels every 5,000 km to 10,000 km depending on the degree of tyre wear. Maintain the direction of tyre rotation.

Clean the contact surfaces of the wheel and the brake disc thoroughly every time a wheel is interchanged. Check the tyre pressure and, if necessary, restart the tyre pressure loss warning system or the tyre pressure monitor.

Lolz i will go See&See to buy a test kit if i miss my 5k rotation. Talking about 5k rotation is free if u hv given a voucher. They top up nitrogen FOC too. Not sure this package is valid for after u change to replica cheapo rims like me or not. Till then, i be back for the truth & no need go figure!! Lolz

No choice then make excuse to upgrade / change to bigger rims & tyres (classy buffet?) LOL

[merczoomer]

Should i still go for the 5K rotation if i have changed the stock rim & tyres?

I suppose it depends on when you changed your stock rims and tyres. If from day one then go do your rotation. If at 2k then do your rotation at 7k. You get the drift.

[merczoomer]

Haha..I have reserve a set of new 18" rim from LS(delivery by this 2 week) and my ride mileage is ard 4k now...is that mean I should get my rotation ard 8k... C&C will entertain me or not.?

C&C entertains all paying customers. Hahaha…

[merczoomer]

Thanks bro... Lucky I got lots of money. No worry now. Hahahaa.....

[Odessus]

Then sounds like you've got no problems! Enjoy your new rims. Hahaha...

[merczoomer]

Still got lots of problem le... MONEY always not enough!!!!!

Fast in fast out... Hehhee

[Phang]

I think 5k tire rotation for street tires are a little overkill, unless we are talking about soft compound tires couple with aggressive wheel camber.

I just rotated mine (FL C180CGI) at home when the car hit 10,000km and will do it at 10,000km intervals.

Does C&C include the full size spare wheel in the tire rotation pattern?

[merczoomer]

For those have changed the rims size ... I think doesnt matter anymore. The spare one is really become 'spare'

[Joshua]

Hi, is it worth doing wheel rotation if my front wheel size is smaller than the back wheels?

I am on staggered setup as well. Did my tire rotation where they swapped the front left with front right and rear left with rear right.
