It is usuall on the inner part of the tread, the tread lugs are worn with dips in it. It is different then feathered tires which have 1 edge of the tread worn more than the other- It can seen when bad, but it is easier to feel by running your had front to back and vis-versa. It will feel shaper in one direction. Scalloped is usually due to damaged/worn parts, feathered is normally due to excessive toe condition.

What causes scalloped tires?

Out of alignment or bad shocks or struts


Can you replace just 2 scalloped tires or do you have to replace all 4 and can they be aligned if not rotated receiving conflicting advise?

The tires have nothing to do with alignment. The car could be aligned with the scalloped tires. They are scalloped from bad alignment, shocks, struts or damaged to the front end. An alignment in itself may not fix the problem. There may need to be some new parts installed before the alignment. You only need to replace the two scalloped tires. A four wheel alignment can be done with new ones on the front and old ones on the back. Rotating them at some point will not affect the alignment.
