As stang pointed out you can't just rotate the outside rim to the front and visia versa. There polished on opposite sides.
My expiece with the last two duallies I had was that I would rotate the tires every 15K. The front would start to cup around this time. I would have the tires dismounted from the rims. Rotate the front to the back inside dual> Inside dual to the outside dual > outside dual to the front. BY the time the front tire had been through three rotation cycles the cupping issue had been flattend back out. I was able to run a set of six tires for about 70K miles before I had to replace them.

Another method is to rotate the tires in pairs.
Take say the left side duals and switch them with the front tires, next time you rotate use the right side duals and rotate with the front. This way you are only have to break down 4 tires at a time rather than 6.

I think the stripes were gold, silver, and maybe a red pin stripe. It also had a factory Sun viser.
