I haven't rotated my tires and now have 7,000 miles. Having never done a 5-tire rotation, I'm not sure if it's too late to start.

Thoughts??

7k is fine. Don’t wait until tread gets jagged. Then it’s too late.

I usually do 3500. But these tires aren’t really aggressive.

Go get a tire tread depth gauge, probably cost you all of $2. Get the wear on all tires and you can see how close they are, otherwise you are just asking people to guess.

I would think 7k miles would be fine but best to get a gauge and measure as suggested. If the wear is found to be substantial you could always get the spare tire shaved down to about 50% of the measured wear.
