Q OCI or PRN if I get the itch. I just do it when I change oil at 10-15k. Leave filter alone and change every other oci
8k just 2 days ago. Those 40 series Bridgestones on my 18 Camray are OEM so I'm not taking any chances. [censored] but they just keep leaking cars harder and harder to Jack on
I thought my Sonata was a mess to jack up with no flat piece of steel to get onto under there.
As va2001ss said above just change the car to my 2007 Volvo V70.
My tires ALWAYS wear straight across due to rotating them.
I cannot grasp the thorough, sincere sounding anti-tire rotation camp.
How does tire rotation NOT give you X% (make up a number) more wear from your rubber?
Plus, it's a great time to inspect your tires. I find wee bits of metal in my tires every time I rotate them.
I apply penetrant to my bleed nipples and inspect my brake hardware at the same time.
Too "Boy Scouty" for you?

Whatever floats your boat, there is certainly nothing wrong with rotating tires.
My Volt wears corners on the rear tires just as much as the front, the rears wear slower overall but still wear edges.
My last set of OEMs went 50,000 miles on front 72,000 on the rears (still have them as not fully worn). The tires are considered 35,000 mile treads and most Volt owners are surprised if you get 20,000 out of a set
I normally don't rotate much but may do a single rotation depending on the car.
I find rotating often is most prudent on a car that has suspension geometry issues (like a Dodge or VW) my old Cobalt and Insight wear tires flat in all 4 positions so it doesn't much matter how often i rotate (if at all)
Normally I can find pairs of tires much cheaper so rotating on replacement usually works fine for me.
Also not rotating makes problems evident on the treads then I can get alignment or replace parts when s problem starts and rotate more if it's persistent

'99 Camry, took about 15 minutes as I have a second set of wheels. Dawned on me that if I put the jack about in the middle of the car I can get one whole side off the ground--seems sketchy, but a bit faster than running the jack up and down 5 times (I do cross rotation).
2011 Silverado short bed two wheel drive truck. 6,000 miles, first rotation. In the past I've never gotten close to the mileage warranty on any of my tires despite rotations and easy driving. If I can get 40,000 miles out of any tire I'm happy.
