This is very common and happens all the time when rotating tires. Davids comment about todays radials is totally correct and he answerd both of his questions.
1) Possible belt destruction of the tire by turning it inward.
2) The ability to operate the vehicle safely based on the tire design once turned inward.
David even offered the exception based on asymetrical water/snow/performance tread designs. But who knows maybe this guy would not believe that you should rotate tires.
Why waste your energy on this Parsegian guy? Two people have asked for specifics and he still has not even mentioned the car or tires. It's obvious he has a limited capability to listen.
