Printable 5-Tire Rotation Card

Had a very frustrating experience with the "Tire Experts" who have been rotating all 5 of my tires for a while now. Basically, they refused to rotate in the spare on my brand new set of tires because of some reason that was indiscernible.

After a short discussion, the manager suggest I provide a card that shows which tires I want where. After searching and only finding blurry, pixelated ones online, I made my own. Feel free to print it out and laminate like I did. I printed at 100%, two copies per page (it's sized for half-letter, but can be printed at other sizes too). At this size it fits nicely in the dash, but it's big enough for the tech to notice.

This pattern works well with any rear wheel drive vehicle that has a fill size spare. Just thought I'd put it out there for others who might be searching.

@benmmc Seriously? Garages are like every other business though, looking for bodies to fill positions. "Experts" know so much, their knowledge hardly applies to real life. Ha.

The print-out isn't a bad idea, but ultimately if you want the job done right, you'll have to do it yourself... lots easier to do a backyard 5-tire rotation than a 4-tire rotation, any way!

Good point!
