But now that spare is all dry rotted and nasty and needs to be replaced anyways. Might as well use it up.
But that was kinda might point...you will have an “odd ball” no matter what...even your first rotation, 4 will have more miles than the spare...that spare will not catch up to the other 4, however you do the math...
Then you have a new tire on the rear that you never use. If you do a 5 tire rotation your tires last 20% longer.
Never had that issue with the Jeep. But like i said, gotta at least rotate its orientation on the carrier.
I apologize, you are correct after 5 rotations, and driving the same thing every single day, no extra miles, no side trips or road trips, yes, they will even out....never owned a vehicle i did 5 rotations on...my apologies. But now you will always have 3 same tread and one “oddball” at all time correct?
Even if you just rotate your four, they aren't going to be worn the exact same...still does not resolve the fact that 1 tire will always have a different wear level.
And I don't care about lasting 20% longer.
huh? You’re using the same 4 all the time, how would it not me the same? You‘ll probably say it all depends on the location on the vehicle (front or rear)? But 4 is as close as you will get to similar wear pattern than 5.
