Is there any reason to switch rear tires from side to side? I didn't notice rotation indicators on the tires. You do it on a car, why not a trike?

No reason to rotate, they seem to wear even.

Great question. One I probably should have asked a long time ago. I've got 30,000 on the rear tires now, and while they don't look new, they seem to be holding up pretty well and no difference in the wear or tread that I can see. If only they could make a front tire that lasted as long!!

Isn't the reason you rotate rear tires on a car because of the differential and one tire driving while the other is driven? Locked differentials turn both wheels the same?
Does the trike axle turn both wheels at the same time?
If it does then that is why they don't rotate then.
Or maybe I am way off on this?
