Rotation/Balance frequency question?

I have a 2007 Cobalt LT that has around 3100 miles on it.
I do my own oil changes (1st one around 2000 miles) and I was just thinking/wondering...
How often should I have my tires rotated and wheels balanced?
I'd just take it in and pay for the service - but I would like to know how often this should be done?

umm I rotate mine like every other oil change I know people that do it Every oil change and then people that do it once a year its really up to you,

and you can have them check and adjust the balance on your tires if you have someone roatate them for you,

but you should just need them balanced once and unless you throw a weight or hit curbs often or something your fine, so just pay attention before you take it in for the tire rotation see if the sterring wheel shakes if not than your good
