Quick Question about tire rotation

So on my 04 TSX with Dunlop Sport Signature SP Tires.. Do I just rotate them front to back/ back to front? or criss cross the back to the opposite fronts?

I'm not familiar with this particular tire, but I can assume it's not directional since you think that it would be OK to move them from side to side. That said, back in the old days when radial tires were a new thing, they were supposed to be kept on the same side since the radial belts took a "set" depending which side of the car they were on. I've been told that's no longer an issue, but..... it's a habit for me so I never move tires from side to side when I rotate (plus, pretty much all of my replacement tires are/have been directional). So..... sorry for the long pre amble without an answer. I'd say keep them on the same side, but..... you may get posts containing a variety of theories (similar to your asking "how often should I change my oil?") since everyone with an answer..... has an answer.
