Ugh. Thanks for the feedback. I will at least give them a chance to bed in tomorrow, since eTrailer tech support didn't call me back anyway. My worry is that @Lynnmor is on the right track, since mechanically, I can't see how bedding will affect an inconsistent behavior around a single rotation. It's worth a shot though, and as some have said - maybe it's not bad enough to matter and won't be as noticeable once bedded.
It sucks because I also figured out my left rear spindle is toed-in a bit and there's nothing I can do about it. I've seen far worse horror stories, but I'm looking at a new set of tires every 20k with religious rotation the way it is. That's 2 years at my current burn rate... and it tows (toes!) fine, so we'll see.
Plus, I'm full time and stuck doing repairs boondocking in the 90 deg yuma desert with 1" long horseflies (I have pics of their bodies) biting me while it's up on jackstands with me working on it.
Please excuse the venting - long day. Everyone's feedback and experiences are very much appreciated.
edit: What also sucks is that I paid a little premium to get all Dexter USA made parts and was expecting smooth sailing for it.
