tire rotation
need to get my tires rotated and i live in vacaville. i get all of my work done at LIC but dont wanna drive all the way out for a rotation. any ideas?
ive heard that its really hard to find the jack points on the car and easy to mess up my plastics. any tricks or tips? also, where can i find info about AWD tire rotating? thanks!
As for rotating, just go front to back and vice versa.

And I know it's ghetto, but instead of a jack stand, I forgot to mention that I "borrowed" another scissor jack from my old man's Accord -- works like a charm too!

+1 to what has already been said.
If you use your car's supplied scissor jack then it will fit perfectly into the pinch weld of the four mounting points under your sideskirts.
Jack they baby up and rotate the tires yourself. You can be done in 30 minutes with no money out of your pocket.

get 2 jack (borrow from someone) jack one side front and back up and rotate the tire.
if you only have one then you can put it on spare wheel... but more work that way.

I'm sorry but are you that clueless just not to just Google this information. I feel like you wasting more time asking people on a forum then just typing the question into Google.
Plus all the information should be in your owners manual.
Look what I found on youtube, he will even visually show you how to do a tire rotation.

30 seconds of my life wasted, oh the horror of doing research yourself.
And since you live in Vacaville, there is a Big-O, I know I used to work there. Go to it and pay money if you are too lazy.
Sorry if I am being an a$$hole.
