To cross over or not

Hi Tonester, I just had new tyes fitted to prado, and his way of rotating is (not including spare as mine is different size) first rotation !! front drivers across to passengers rear, passengers front to drivers rear, then on the second rotation back to front on the same sides then back to step one again for third roation and so on. He said this is vital for the 90 series prado's as they feather out on the passengers front so this will even the wear up over the life of the tyre.Thats his way anyway.

Have had a couple of friends who had tyres delaminate after a cross over rotation.
All we can put it down to, and this is a guess, is that they did it each time the night before hitting the road. i.e. That were doing 100k/hr on the rotated tyres.

While the rest of us who do the rotate/crossover do it a week or two before we go and reckon that week or so driving at 60km/hr around town lets the plies settle in.

Any other ideas :o)
