Default Preferred rotation / flip sequence for square A6s?

I know it doesn't really matter, but I have 245 square A6s on an AP2 set of wheels. The front outside shoulders are wearing and the inside fronts look great. I was going to flip the fronts outside to inside, but I have another friend that always flips his front to back (as well as inside to outside). The wear on our rear tires is pretty even.

Any thoughts (besides that it doesn't really matter).

I run 275x4 and rotate front-to-back after each event. Once I start noticing some outside shoulder wear, I have them dismounted and flipped. I continue rotating front-to-back until they're done.

You run a square set of wheels, though, right?

Rotating front to back means dismounting for us. Which means we might as well flip them. But with the crowning on the narrow front wheel, the inside front is less worn than the inside rear... wondering if I should flip the fronts and leave them front....

I go about 20 runs then flip on my 275s.

Front inside to front outside? Or Front inside to rear outside?
