To get tires balanced and rotated is for the most part very cheap. Here it costs like twenty five bucks.

Just to clarify the solution:
Rotation may help in your front tires went out of balance while rear ones are still balanced. But it is not a rotation by itself that solves the problem, it is that you put more or less balanced tires on your front axle

Yeah, even though its easy to rotate your tires yourself, its always a good idea to get them rebalanced afterward.
