I purchased second hand Cooper ATR's and two of them looked like they had been on the front of a car with defective steering settings. Legal tread and no cuts but were unevenly worn. They are on the back and are doing OK. The Cooper agent stated they should settle down on the rear with time and the other two went on the front. So is the maintenance you talk about due to tyre rotation?

pretty much, but it is the same for most tyres, keep the rotations up to date and keep the wheel alignment right to get the most out of your tyres
