When rotating the tires on a car with quattro...do you guys recemmend same side fronts to back, vice versa....or an X rotation?

 

Same sides front / rear

 

Doesnt matter, rotate them however you want.

It's in the manual. Tread wear isn't going to destroy your quattro.

If your tires are directional, then front to rear is all you can do.

 

Yep. You may want to, when you have them rotated, if there is any cupping from the amount of camber Audi puts on them, may want to do an X and then a same side, I guess it would come down to if they are wearing in certain spots as opposed to others.

BTW Chris, I'm loving the Avon Tech's so far. I'll wait for some Snow/Rain to test them out a little further.

 

Oh you already have them on? Sweet! My buddy might get some of the summer avons for his car... he'd have to go to USA to get them though -- but he plans on doing that for wheels anyhow.

It'll be a good day when Avons are available in Canada.

 

Yes sir, had them put on right after I put on the new tire rod ends. So I'm anxious to give them a real test. If you ever need to have them shipped or what not, I can always purchase them and have them shipped to me and I can turn around and ship them to you guys. I know they would be a little more pricey, but I mean it would be a passing the expense deal, no profit or anything. So I'm always game for that, I don't know how much of a drive it would be for you guys etc. And also I'm compiling some stuff for on the CD. Did you ever get 10.4?

 

if they are directional just like this II
if not like this X

 

Not yet, it's coming from Europe... and the guy got sick with something wierd -- I'm not sure it's even in the mail yet.
And I'd consider that tire thing sometime down the road. Mine are brand new though!
