Never rotated tires on any of my vehicles including my 72 TR6 for the reasons Randall cited below.

This points up one of the reasons I am resistant to shuffling tires around. If you had let them be, you would know without doubt which corner had a problem. Now all you know is that either the RF or the RR has a problem, maybe both of them.

The main point of rotating tires appears to be so the tire company can sell you 4 tires at a time, rather than just one or two.
