I took my PP wheels off to clean inside and am wondering if I should rotate side to side. The Michelin PS4s aren't directional.

Since its side to side, not sure it could balance wear much.

Agreed, won’t help much but not a bad idea.

Thanks. Plus since turning the opposite direction, the still sharp trailing edges of blocks will then be in front. Gonna switch sides.

Even after a couple of alignments, every right rear tire I have put on wears faster than the left, so I swap them to balance it out.

I woudn't do it if that was the sole reason to pull the wheel but if they're off for cleaning then you've nothing to lose.

Yeah. I swapped them. Won't remove to clean again. Didn't realize how much time and effort Ford put into painting the barrels the exact color of factory brake dust. Virtually indistinguishable between clean and dirty thru the tiny openings in these wheels. LoL
