Reply to "radial tire rotation"

There a 2 schools of thought on tire rotation. The dominant one states to rotate tires. As stated same size directional front to back, and regular will have the 5 way switch. The intention is to have ALL the tires 'wear' evenly. Fronts have a tendency to wear edges from heavy cornering and 'driven' wheels may wear faster from spin. Tire manufacturers have started training dealership employees in the tire business (notice there a fewer service stations and tire shops) and they are teaching the rotation for the simple reason that wheels are removed for rotation (customer pays) and they can do a visual on brakes and suspension components, if you didnt agree they might have to absorb the technician's wages if nothing found (ha!) There is nothing wrong in not doing the rotation as long as you keep a close eye on brakes, suspension components and tire wear (you can replace 2 tires from the same 'axle' should 2 tires wear faster)
