Weird tire wear.
I have a set of Les Shwab (spelling?) Wildcat AT tires. The older style, not the new ones. I really like them. They actually work great in all conditions. The problem is I stopped going to the store to have them rotated, mainly because I was tired of having to watch the guys like a hawk just to make sure they didnt scratch or screw anything up. Its amazing how lackadaisical those guys can be with your hard earned possesions. You feel like the are trying out for Nascar. Anyways back to what I was saying, now my front tires are wearing funny. I have seen so many people not rotate tires and they look great. How about you guys? How many rotate your brand tires? Do you have any trouble. Truck alignment is fine, too.

I rotate every 6,000 miles (2 oil changes). Tires are as flat wearing as a pancake. Have over 44,000 miles on them and tire shop says easily 20,000+ miles left on them.
I rotate them a little different though. One time it is front to back, the next time is left front to right rear and right front to left rear. Then it repeats, front to back, etc. The tire shop shakes their head but it works!! Been doing it on my vehicles for over 20 years and have never had a problem.
