tire rotation pattern
I always go front to back, never X. I did that X a couple of times and ended up with belt shifts and strange wear patterns. I think the manufacturers just like to sell tires. On a TIB front end I would swap the tires on the rims to help with the outer edge chopping. You can't go wrong with front to back so why take a chance? A good low mile spare can be traded in after a couple sets of tires to a dealer for replacement use.

I might be ****, but I do it just like the owners manual says. Front tires cross over onto the back and back tire move straight to the front. I have always used this pattern about every 5,000 miles and typically I get 75,000 miles out of a set of OEM tires before I replace them.

It lists rotation patterns just like those above in my owners manual also. I am just overly **** and use the 4 tire front back method pictured in the manual. I have received 70,000 miles out of a set of Firestone FR480's on a fullsize Ford van with tire rubber to spare, now that's impressive. I changed them out just to have more rubber for the winter. I probably could have got another 10-15,000 out b4 the wear bars were showing.

Haven't ya figured out yet that they don't know. Lawyers wrote the manual. So just put your front tires on the back, and your back tires on the front, repeat as necessary. And when ya switch brands of tires, hang your spare from a rope in a tree so the kids can swing on it.
