FISKER OCEAN - AWD TIRE ROTATION

EV Channels Review

This video provides a detailed, step-by-step guide to performing an AWD tire rotation on a Fisker Ocean. The presenter emphasizes the importance of using the correct rotation pattern, which for the AWD Ocean (Ultra, Extreme trims) involves a cross pattern (front to rear, rear to front crossed), differing from simpler front-to-back swaps on other vehicles. The reviewer highlights the need for proper tools, including jack stands (preferably four for a single-lift operation), a torque wrench, and a 17mm socket for wheel bolts. A key takeaway is the recommendation to use jack pad adapters to prevent slippage when lifting the vehicle. The presenter notes that tire wear on their Ocean has been relatively even, possibly due to consistent use of 'Fun' or 'Hyper' modes which engage AWD. The video concludes with a successful rotation, proper torquing of lug bolts, and adjustment of tire pressures to factory specifications (44 PSI front, 49 PSI rear). While the process is deemed manageable for DIYers with the right equipment, caution is advised, and professional service is suggested for those unsure.
