If you think about it, any FWD/AWD vehicle has more mass on the front end. Since the front tires are doing the majority of the driving, braking and steering, they will wear more rapidly than the rear tires. If you follow the advice to put the tires with the most tread on the rear, you will never rotate your tires, because the rear tires will always more tread. IMO, this recommendation is nonsense and should never be followed. Do what Spitpilot suggested and rotate the tires front to rear (not across) every 5-7k kms, or perhaps once or twice per year, depending on how much you drive your vehicles. If you follow this advice, the tires will wear out as a set and you will be able to replace them as a set.
