Fix the alignment, and you'll stop generated more irregular wear. However, once the tires are irregularly worn, you can't go backwards (put rubber back on the tire). The best you can hope for is that the tires get a new wear pattern that erases the old wear pattern. At best, this may take some time. At worst, it may not happen at all. |

Re: roation criss cross =no good.
My summer tires are directional so I can't criss-cross rotate unless I was to dismount and remount the tires.
My winter tires are non-directional and since they are all the same, every time I put them on I have no clue what position the particular tire was in last. If they start to wear unevenly I'll be sure to mount the more worn ones in the positions less prone to wear on my car (the rear), but as of now, they seem to be wearing evenly.
