Did you look at the tread on your tires? RH06's are Directional tread and you do a front to back rotation. There's a big ol' arrow on the sidewall that says ROTATION.

Anything with a V pattern tread will be a directional tire so that water is correctly driven from the inside of the tire out.

If the shop told you it didn't matter then I would highly suggest you go check and make sure the pattern on all of your tires points to the front of the truck.

absolutely love my Hankook RH06's, going on 40k miles and if it weren't for DJM's balljoints crapping out and not rotating enough they'd have another 10-15K in them. Very good wet traction, quiet, balanced great and look good too.
