Toyota Camry: Alignment after each tire roation ???

Repositioning wheels/tires on the car does not affect alignment
settings. Tire carcasses do take a "set" on the front of an FWD car
because of the driving and braking stresses that the rears are barely
subjected to by comparison.

Also, if the rear tires were initially spin balanced on the car, any
imbalance in the drums/rotors will have be factored is which ... when
moved to the front position will make that balance inappropriate.

Personally... with FWD, I don't do tire rotations any more. The
rears scarcely wear at all while the fronts you can watch
disintegrate month by month. I wear down the fronts to about 4/32nds
and then rotate them to the back, same side. When the "new" fronts
are worn down to 4/32nds, I get a new set of four.

I have noted a couple of times that when repositioning "experienced"
rear tires to the drive axle that a steering shake (very minor)
appears for a couple thousand miles.

I am not as knowledgeable as many here but I think alignment effects pull to
one side and steering while vibration is more a balance problem.

May require balancing but not alignment after rotation.
