#167 of 172 Rotation by willyou Jun 26, 2009 (10:15 am)
I bought two new tires LTX/MS for my 03 Dodge Ram 1500 at Costco. They did the wheel balance for my 2 old front tires and switched them from left to right. After I drove 5 miles, I had to return to Costco tire shop. Because I found it drove towards right side as speed over 50 miles. They switched back my front tires for me. This time it goes straight. Anyone knows why? Replies to this message: stanoski (Jun 26, 2009 10:59 am)

Replying to: willyou (Jun 26, 2009 10:15 am) Not sure other than your two old tires aren't exactly "new" anymore and have some wear on them resulting in them pulling one way or the other. That has happened to me too on an old truck I had.   I do know however if you have 2 old tires you are keeping and are getting 2 new tires, the techs should put the new ones in the rear rather than in the front. Doesn't make sense to me but thats what I have been told is the right way to do it.   Ski in TX

Replying to: golfgoumba (Nov 19, 2009 6:57 am) Maintenance schedules are in your owners manual so look there first. There are two types of service, regular and severe and believe it or not, most drivers fall into the severe catagory (short trips, stop and go driving, etc.). Read the definition and you will find out what you kind of driver you are.   If you actually did everything the manual says to do (on time and mileage) you will go broke! Use your own judgement on when to do maintenance and use the manual as a good guideline (my opinion only). For instance, changing the oil every 3K miles is a joke, ask any mechanic NOT trying to sell you an oil change. Prices are higher at the dealer but if you want it done by the dealer, you will pay extra for it.   Ski in TX
