    If i were to rotate back to front and spun the tires a little would it bring down bad flat spots?

    kind of a theory i heard from a friend in the car club down here.

    I've done this. It does seem to help. I actually had a mechanic tell me to do this. LOL. Took me about two-three good burnouts before the flat spots were completely gone.
