Rotating tyres question

[heartbrkr]

hi all,

i rotated my tyres a few weeks ago. well my mechanics apprentoid did. concern i have is:

with the grooves on the tyre running inside->outside drawing water out the edge of the tyres etc. Now that i have moved the front left to the rear right, the groves would be pointing outside->inside when looking top to bottom.

Wouldnt this be drawing water into the centre of the tyre, making it want to aquaplane etc?

should i have taken the tyre to a shop and had refitted to the rims instead?

If the tyres are directional (check for rotation arrow on sidewall) they can be rotated front to back on the SAME side.

To rorate left to right they MUST be removed from the rims, refitted and balanced, this is the fix for fronts that wear faster on the inside.

Found the arrow. Tyres point the right way. Never realised/thought of this before. Always thought you put tyres on opposite corners. Guess the apprentoid did a switch when i wasnt looking. unless they were wrong to begin with =)
