thanks, much appreciated infoRotating your tires prolongs the life of your tires to help distribute the wear evenly. It's not necessary, but it's good to do it and will help you get to the actual rated range of your tires.
thanks, getting a free alignment now at Goodyear tire, getting their opinion, appreciate your replyAre your tires wearing unevenly? If not I wouldn't bother rotating them. Many manufacturers don't recommend rotating tires. No idea why Tesla still recommends it. The amount of money you might save isn't worth the hassle IMHO. Also, rotating the tires might mask alignment problems and of course any time anyone works on your car they could mess it up (especially the level of mechanic that is assigned to rotate tires!).
3/32" tread on your rears after 5000 miles!? Either your tires were defective or you were having too much fun with Slip Start...Had my tires rotated the other day at Tesla SC because my rear tires were at 3/32”, with 5000 miles on the car. Tesla rep says tires are different on a Tesla. Ok...but I can’t imagine that I should be having to replace them every 5k miles. Btw, they charged $87 for the rotatation. Going to see if Michelin will replace them.

You still should rotate. The motors do not send equal power to each axle at all times (they are modulated for traction and possibly sleep) and the fronts turn, so that can add to a different wear pattern.does it make a difference if you have anAWD? will they wear evenly so no need to rotate?
interesting, i had no idea you could have new tires shaved to match your current worn down tires!You still should rotate.

Please remember that tires must be the same on AWD cars or else you can cause the system to over compensate, and that could be bad for the differential. So if you replace one tires (say for a nail) you need to make sure it is within an allowable difference in depth (x/32nds) from the tire on the other end of the axle (or even front/rear sometimes). I usually have Tire Rack shave the new tire to match the others.
