Post subject:  rotating directional-tread tires

The tires I just put on are directional tread winter tires. This is the first set of directional tires I've owned. When it's time to rotate them, do I need to get them remounted? Or just swap them front to back only?

You definitely don't want to get them remounted. If I remember correctly, just swap back to front and vice versa. If you got the same new tire mounted on the spare, it's a good idea to rotate the spare in too.

Thanks! I'll just to that then, rotate them on the same side and mix in the spare on the side it matches.
