Hi all,
Do y'all rotate the front tyres at all?
In the meanwhile I will consult the book of BuRP to see if Can Am has any wisdom on the matter and promptly post here if they do.

Tyre rotation? Do you rotate the front tyres on your Spyder?

I rotated at 8,000 because they were wearing more or the insides (Which is common)
I now have 11,000 and hope to see 15,000 before I put on the new ones I have in the garage.

+I switched my front tires to Bridgestone Potenzas (P165/65R14 78S for a Honda Fit) for far better wear and longevity, and like feel. I've only rotated mine once since installed 3/21/10 and they're still going strong with 24,000 miles without any of the unusual wear patterns that existed on the previous sets of OEM tires. I already have a Potenza-shoed pair of wheels for when these eventually wear out, but they've still got lots of miles left.
So, yes, I rotate them for longevity.
Ride on.

Thanx all for the replies.
Roadkill, Thanks for the tip.
Can I ask what PSI do you run the Potenzas at?
