Can you replace just 2 scalloped tires or do have to all 4 and can they be aligned if not rotated receiving conflicting advise?

It is not recommended to only replace 2 scalloped tires. This can cause the vehicle to pull to the side and affect the handling and safety of the vehicle. It is best to replace all 4 tires at once to ensure even wear and performance.

Scalloped tires can also be aligned, but they cannot be rotated. When a tire is scalloped, it means that the tread has worn unevenly, which can cause a vibration or noise. Alignment can help to correct the vibration or noise, but it will not fix the uneven wear. Rotating the tires will not help to fix the uneven wear either, and can actually make it worse.

If you are experiencing scalloping on your tires, it is important to have them inspected by a qualified technician to determine the cause and to recommend the best course of action.
