That should be the least troublesome rotation you can do.  If you have
directional tread tires, it's the only way to go.

www.TireRack.com has good tech and maintenance info.  I've had D60/A2s in
the past and I don't think they were even directional, so it's odd you're
having problems.   Maybe you have a bent wheel - might not have been as
noticeable on the back?  Also, did you tighten the lug nuts with a torque
wrench?  Unevenly or over-torqued nuts can warp brake rotors and cause
problems.
