I worked at a tire shop for a couple of years when I was in my 20's and we only ever did front to back and back to front for directional tires and non-directional tires. I asked the owner of the shop at the time why because I seen owners manuals that did the X rotation. He said that some non-directional tires didn't react well to having their direction changed. Some will vibrate and others suffered tread separation. His 40+ years of experience in the tire industry was enough for me.
