Hi, I just got the car serviced and asked for the wheels to be rotated.
However, instead of putting the front on the back and vice versa, the mechanic also switched the left to the right and the right to the left (which was correct in the old days).
With the car using Continental Premium Contact 2 tyres and their asymmetric tread design, the car now doesn't look symmetrical. I'm concerned that this will affect grip and handling especially in the wet as one tyre is dispersing water outwards and the other inwards. Should I be worried?
Should I just swap them around so that the car sits how I think it should?
Any help or advice will be much appreciated.
PS. I think one of the alloys is now chipped which I noticed after the service but I'm not sure whether the wife did or not. Does anyone else has similar experiences of this "dilemma"?
