I believe this also goes back to early days of radial tires, if they were
run in the opposite direction from which they were broke in, the plys
tended to separate. I seem to remember this from the early 70's. And your
right Rob, I don't believe this is a problem anymore.

Lee:
I believe this is old thinking. The Wranglers (front tires) on my 97 were
getting wear (front outside lug wearing faster that rear lug - cupping),
caused by turning. The solution is to rotate front left to right rear etc.
This reverses the direction and evens the wear. More that one tire shop
told me to do this. No alignment problems.
But, this is just my opinion, not necessarity correct.
