I remember my first set, Michelins, about fifty years ago - the dealer said NO!

Have things changed in a half-century? Something to do with belt shifting then reversal which resulted in belt breakage.

This is for a lightweight automobile.

Why? Parts are on the way to cure positive camber.

Modern radials can be cross rotated. Just make sure you do not have directional tires. Those must stay on the same side.

Agree. While radial tire rotation diagrams favor the front-to-rear pattern, there is nothing wrong with side-to-side or 'X' pattern rotation, especially if you are trying to mitigate a tire lead or pull situation or a tire cupping wear-type issue.

I still switch front to rear only unless there's a problem forcing a direction change for a tire.

Answered to my satisfaction.
