Hey, /o/, my tires are due to be rotated, but my rear tires are less worn than the front ones. Should I rotate anyways or just balance?

They rotate when you drive them

Most tread should go where the power is, front on FWD rear on RWD and if you have AWD just FUCK OFF

My car is FWD.

No the tires with the best tread should go on the front especially in FF platforms.
If your autistic or rich balance the tires every 10 000 km because as the tread wears away the overall weight of the tire decreases, thus the weights used to balence when mounted are now too heavy.
This is a never ending argument but in a FWD with the engine in the front, the front tires will wear faster generally. The other consideration is the front tires are responsible for turning so if steering through a puddle, I want the tires with the best tread to help disperse the water.

If your car is fwd you need to rotate them. The best tires go on the back is nice in theory but in practical use with a fwd the front tires will wear faster than the rear so you have to rotate.

when in doubt, rotate.
