Do I need a tire rotation?

I have two new tires on the right side of my car (don't ask why - long story). I'm taking her in for 7500 mile check-up tomorrow and I'm thinking because of this I don't need a tire rotation. Whaddya think? BTW, David McDavid quoted $130 for the full 7500 mile service. Oh well, if I'm gonna pay over $30k for my car I don't mind paying that every 7500 miles.

Okay, since the other side did not get rotated then rotate them.

I have seen a lot of negative karma directed at David McDavid so beware. As information, I had a private Honda/Acura shop do my 7500 mile service a week ago. It cost me $35...yes, $35 dollars including a full checkup, oil/filter change, tire rotate. They gave me a 3 page report card including how many millimeters I had left on all the brake pads.

I would make it so the new tires are either on the front or rear. It is best to have tires that are not all the same (including tread wear) split between front ane rear.

I really haven't noticed much negativity towards David McDavid here, especially compared to what people say about other dealerships. Sounds like you found a gem of a shop up there, I might have to make the drive up!
