Tire rotation and waves in tires

I had a car place tell me that I had waves in my tires. The tires only have 28,000 miles on them. He said its from not rotating the tires and that I have to buy 4 new tires. Is this true that not rotating causes these wave that I CANT EVEN SEE ANY WAVES or is this a line of bull to get a 4 tire sale.

Thank you,

Re: Tire rotation and waves in tires

Dont know what they mean by waves, possibly bulges and in which case yes they would need replacing. Tyre rotation however is a bit over rated and no you dont have to rotate them with exception for some 4 wheel drive vehicles.
It's reccomended that you have the better tyres on the rear of the vehicle regardless of if its front or rear wheel drive.
Im suspecting that you proberbly went to a fast fit place. Funny how nearly every car they see needs 4 tyres. I would seek a second opinion from a reputable garage just to checkout those waves/bulges just to be sure though.
