    Hi guys! I need your quick advice.

    Our Innova has 15,000kms on it and unfortunately, I forgot (or I the casa forgot) to rotate the tires at 10,000kms.

    Now, my problem is complicated by the two front tires whose outer side has more wear than the inside (positive camber).
    This seems to be a common Innova problem which I noticed only after 15,oookms.

    I know I need to have the camber alignment checked.

    But my question is: Is it still safe to rotate the tires as recommended in the manual?

    It's better to put those at the rear.

    If you rotate, just do the front. Mahirap masabugan sa front.

    If manipis na talaga ang tread, change tires na dapat.

    If you're getting new tires, sa likod dapat ilagay ang new tires! Common practice talaga before na ilagay ang new tires sa front but that myth has been debunked.
    here's a trusted article by tirerack why new tires should be installed sa rear:

    Kung outer tread ang worn-out, check for excessive toe-in. Camber does not wear down tires as fast as an incorrect toe setting, especially 15,000 lang tinakbo.
