Two New Tires/Rotation of Existing Four Tires - Toyota Yaris Forums

Okay, so my friend went to Wheel Works to get her tires rotated plus an alignment. They told her they rotated the tires, but when I looked at it today, they weren't rotated. The more worn out tires were still in the front and some other details of why I know they did not rotated. So I told her and she called them back. The manager was sorry that the tires were not rotated and proceeded to tell her that the rear tires should have the better tread. Keep in mind, she has an Accord coupe (fwd).

What's your take on this? I say that the front tires, especially on a fwd car, should have the better tires since they're the ones that receive the power and steer at the same time.
