Default Tire rotation

AS we all know there are many "schools of thought" given to what is the right shade of OD and did they use gasoline to cut paint and do weavels wobble....This is particularly true of "those tires that won't fit"....now that we know that, yes Martha they Do fit...and the fact that they are considered "directionals" with an arrow to boot, and considering when and where one will have the inclination to rotate their tires to include the spare, afterall we don't want to incurr "push-pull" on our diffs with tires that are not the same circumference. I would suggest that although the manuals have decided this and that....no matter what direction the v hits the ground the tires will in effect roll if placed on edge rather than flat like some seroid bound Icelandics who consider tires not only poorly engineered but damn heavy?? So for those who wish and suppose that my tires are on wrong....I will give you an updated picture after my first rotation of all tires....say next year sometime? They will then follow the notion that the inverted V will make them last longer. At least for a year until next rotation.

Make no mistake I take all your opinons with a wink and a smile and enjoy a good torment and sh-- chucking...after all "you shouldn't have joined if you can't take a joke"!

Cheers
