Tire Pressure Monitoring & Rotation (Dually)

[mcomeaux]

I'm planning on rotating my tires myself and was wondering how this is going to effect the pressure monitoring on the tires. I have the OEM system. Will they require reprogramming to new position?
I have a dually will they reprogram themselves?

You just need to rotate and then drive with a speed above 45 mph or so and they will self calibrate and move to the right position

Thank You....

that is not what i read, the inside duals need to stay inside and the outside duals need to stay outside.

Do you have steel wheels or aluminum wheels?

avatar pic looks to be aluminum, so the rotation will be side-to-side only with rear inners staying inners and outers staying outers

 

[Beast2B]

well, on closer look, they may be chrome. they are definitely shiny!

yep not enough information for a proper answers...year of truck and type of rims.

Leave rears where they are. Inflate to proper pressure for towing, running bobtail run 35.

Fronts run at 80 all the time. Rotate side to side with rotation staying the same. Leave wheels in same position. Align front to 1/64-1/32 toe.

Do the above and you will have great tire longevity.

Good timing on this thread. I have a 2018 dually and need to rotate. Fronts are showing feathering on outer edges. I'm assuming that's where the 1/64-1/32 toe number will help? I was also wondering if the tams will learn its new position. If I read Cummins12v98 correctly, the only tires you move are the fronts? I've seen several different versions of dually rotation. I have the aluminum front and outers, steel inners. One way I saw is swap the inners, then RR outer to LF, LR outer to RF. I'd just like my tires to last for more than 30K for once!

"I'd just like my tires to last for more than 30K for once!"

Do as I did and sell the POS NEXENS on CL and get sone quality tires like these. 20k at time of pics.

Post up your 38k Michelin pics that took a krappppppppp......

22,000 miles on my front OEM Nexan tires below. I rotated once side to side at 10,000 miles and will do again soon.

One thing I did to reduce the feathering that I saw right away when new was to be light on the throttle when turning sharp. The dually really wants to go straight and will scrub the tires easily if pushed to hard in the turn. This reduced the feathering that I saw on the tires when I first started driving this truck.

I'm sure someone will chime in shortly that my tires will come apart any day now

I can do that if you like. Along with the fact they simply did not wear as good as they should have partly because of me and mostly because they had issues with that tire. They did give me over $100 x 6 to go towards new tires of my choice. It’s obvious they fixed the issue and so did I as these are wearing great like every other Michelin I have owned running easily over 500k accumulated miles.

Yes if you want to have a tire wear like iron get the Bridgestone tire you ran but be honest like I have and admit they don’t have the ride or traction of the tires I posted.

Based on many reports they may have tread seperation soon as did my General tires on my 11 DRW.

Keep your fronts at 80 and set tie to specs mentioned and outside tire stepping will go away.

I never experienced one ride complaint (except for a mis-balance condition at original installation) nor ANY traction issues, new or worn, through the 154k miles I ran them.

As usual......you’re back in the “force feed” mode and “do as I do” mode in regards to the Michelin brand, even reinforcing the fact that Michelin “did the right thing” of giving you your own money back from (crap) tires you thought were the best....and basically never admitting that Michelin made crap tires.

When I was running my 3500, I did get to try a variety of tires over 362k miles. I simply laughed when you said the OEM General Ameri*Trac TR’s we’re junk, yet mine safely went to 80,000 miles.

I’m heavily debating sharing any of my real world experiences with my 225/70R19.5 Continentals on my ‘18 RAM 4500......as I’m sure they’re junk, too.

Steel Rims with simulators...

Did you READ what I said or just being argumentative like usual???

I am going by MANY people reporting the bridge stones simply don't have the traction or ride as the Michelins or other LT tires but as I have also mention the Bridgestone do wear like iron.

YOU are doing no different saying what has worked for you. I have had excellent results using Michelin/BFG tires for WAYYY over a million miles. I had ONE set of Michelins that I have talked about that did not perform like the others. They corrected the problem as I have shown in several pics.

I use Michelin tires on my vehicles and GY tires on my trailers because that is what works best for me. I give my experiences and photos to back up what I say. Sorry this disturbs you so much.

BTW I don't knock you for the tires you run as they work well for you and if I were in your business I would run the same!

Pretty funny as you must only read my posts as the GENERALS went back for MANY people including RustyJC, his caused damage to his truck. I guess you won't slam him tho????????

You can rotate the fronts to the outer rears without any interruption of the TPIS display on your EVIC.

 

[AMink]

Rotate side to side with rotation staying the same.

Are saying dismount and remount? If I go side to side w/out remount the rotation will be backwards.
