    Go to the shop and check the wheel balance or the wheel alignment.

    A related question...

    My rear tires would wear faster on the inside since the Rav4's rear has a negative camber setting. The wear on the rear tires is quite noticeable if you forgot to rotate your tires (guilty!) every now and then.

    To salvage the tires, what I did is to have them unmounted, flipped them (so that the outside is now in the inner side) and then mounted them again to the wheels.

    Is that ok?

    P.S.

    My better tires (almost brand new) are in front and I am hesitant to move them back because of this.
