    Hi,
    In the manual it shows two different types of tire rotation
    One type if you have directional tire and the other if you have non
    directional tire. What's the difference ? How do I know which one I have ?
    My car came with the 15 inches Michelin.
    Thanks for any input

    Michelin what? Is it the MXV4+ Energy? If so, it's non-directional, I
    believe. The best way to check is to look on the sidewall. If it's
    directional, it'll have an arrow somewhere showing the correct rotation
    direction.

    In any case, even if you have non-directional tires, it's OK to just rotate
    front-to-back and not worry about side-to-side.

    Cheers,

    Pete

    don't rotate them, the sooner you replace those Michelins with something
    decent (especially on the front) the better.

    LOL! Very true!

    Something like Dunlop SP A2 would work nicely, alternatively Dunlop SP5000
    if you're looking for more grip and better performance.

    Cheers,

    Pete
