    It compensates itself.

    On trucks with a/t tires it's best to diagonal rotate if possible. R/F to L/R, L/F to R/R. But yes it compensates itself no issue.

    I think the Owners Manual suggests Front to Back instead of Diagonal.

    Wheel torque specs and some suspension values:

    TPMS reset is done with ignition on, then pressing the reset button till the TPMS warning indicator flashes 3 times. It relearns the new positions after driving it for a specified distance.

    I always do the (A) REARWARD CROSS method listed below. By performing this method, the tires are hardly ever (or rarely) in the same corner/position on the vehicle for the life of the tire. Plus by putting the rears directly forward to the front, you reduce the risk of felt vibration in the steering wheel because the cords of the tire are going in the same direction as when they were on the rear.

    Lol so much weird advise in this thread... Cross em if you like, or don't. Just rotate your tires, that's all that really matters.

    ^this - the rear cross^ I do this every oil change. While I'm at it I check out the suspension for any problems that can be nipped in the bud.
