Haha. I should rotate them a little sooner than I do. My fronts have some visible wear, the rears don't. Yes, my car understeers- it's a Subaru and I don't drift. Anwyays.
Try every 5-7k if you can manage it, or just keep an eye on your front-to-rear wear ratio.

You're a bit overdue but no worries just check for wear until you find some time during an oil change or something.
remember FR goes to RR
and FL goes to RL

Rotate every 3k miles or at most 3.5k miles if you have increased front negative camber, or you've lowered your car and haven't corrected the excessive rear negative camber that ensues...
