Except that you're not supposed to reverse the direction that the tire spins
on radials. Can lead to belt slippage, resulting in early tire death. This
can cause a blowout, which can cause human death. You would be better off
not rotating them at all IMO. Personally, I would go 70s all around and
rotate them every 5-6k miles, but that is a matter of opinion.

As Mark said, checking your alignment regularly will help a lot, whether you
rotate your tires or not. But then again, a decent tire costs about as much
as a decent alignment. Also check your tire pressure regularly.
Over-inflation will cause them to wear in the center of the tread first.
Under-inflation (much more common) will cause them to wear on the outsides
of the tread first. If they are wearing on the outside of the tread but only
on one side, that is a sure indication of an alignment problem.

Rotating your tires from side to side will still extend the life of your
tires over non-rotation.
