Tire Rotation issues

Today I was informed by the dealership the wheels on my 2009 F250 could not be rotated since they are aluminum. Has anyone else heard of this? <?xml:namespace prefix = o ns = "urn:schemas-microsoft-comfficeffice" /><o></o>

Well, with the AL wheels on a DRW it does require a bunch of dismounting and remounting to rotate them properly since 3 of the 7 wheels are steel and 4 AL. On a SRW there shouldn't be any issues.
