Or have the tires balanced while they're being rotated.

Check the tires for broken belts and tread seperation as well. This is
relatively easy to do. With the tire still on the cor, run your hand
around it and check for bumps and/or flat spots. You can also take the
tire off the car and try to roll it. I have had tires with tread
seperation which will roll fine until they hit the bad spot and thn
veer to the right or left and fall over. In a couple of cases, the
tire dealer replaced them for free.
