do you 960/s90 folks rotate your tires? the s90 owners manual only says "if tires are rotated", doesn't say they should be. pirelli warranty requires rotation.

and any thoughts on having different tire brands on front & rear (in pairs)?

thanks

    I rotated the tires on my S90 while I had it. The tires I had on it were unidirectional so had to stay on whatever side they were meant for, thus my "rotation" was swapping from front to back once a year.

    Yes the best plan is 4 identical tires, but failing that you have to have the same size and kind of tire on each side of the front and the rear.

    For best handling and ride you are best off with 4 identical tires.

    Don't own an S90 (850 and formerly a 240), but I have always rotated my tires on my cars unless there was a good reason not to. An example of that would be much more wear on one axle than the other.
