Do they always rotate them the same way at 7,500 miles? I took my mom's van to them recently for a rotation since two years and 14k miles since getting them mounted. I told them to rotate them, and that I wasn't sure when the last time they we're mounted. I'm not sure if they ever rotated them because the brake dust was still found on the two front wheels(car was very dirty), unless they rotated the left and front.

My father's car is coming up on 7,500 miles and I plan on giving it a nice tune up once they rotate them. I'll be sure to watch exactly what they do this time instead of going inside the store.

I though they're policies we're a little weird too. My RSX comes with V rated tires, and I asked them to "price" tires for them while waiting for my mom's car. They had a nice set of Potenzas but since they we're the rating below, they said they can't sell them to me. I said considering the speed limits, it doesn't matter if one is rated to 120mph or 130mph, but they said they still need to meet the manufacturer's rating.
