I don't know what the end goal of Kwik Fit is, but there are several things they state on their website which are VERY disturbing to me having to do with tire (tyre) rotation. Here is what I'm talking about. Note: I'm taking quotes from the page you linked. Partly worn tyres are more likely to experience punctures – particularly in wet weather conditions. What does wet weather have to do with whether a tire is punctured or not? Absolutely nothing, as far as I can tell. Road hazards will flatten a tire just as quickly in dry weather as it will in wet. Front tyre deflation will create an under-steer effect which is easier to control than over-steer (the effect produce
