I have 15k on my 2019. Probably should have rotated tires sooner. How does everyone handle tire rotations?

I no longer do oil changes so may have the dealership do the oil and rotations.

I have them do 5 tire rotation, Had to pay for a tpm to be added in spare but it’s the same tire and rim as other 4. I do it every oil change about 7500 mi....

I think you went a bit too far for your first rotation, for the first time I would put both fronts on the back and the back on the front and then do any other four tire rotation. Usually when it comes time to buy tires, they come in a set of four with a discount, usually paying full price for a 5th one. But if you have a money tree, you wouldn't be asking. Good luck.

Pick your poison and stick with one. I do mine every 5k miles.

I have always used the bottom right option for my trucks since the spare is not the same for me. I change the oil and rotate the tires every 5000 miles. With Corona, I went over by a couple of hundred miles, but I think the truck will survive. :cool:

I've always done 5000 mile 5 wheel rotations on all my so equipped vehicles... actually quite the snob about it. Also 5000 mile alignments unless needed sooner due to some mishap. Then again people are always asking me how I manage to get so many miles out of a set of tires. On this platform, I may add an extra spare which will extend that even further, but much more expensive when it is time to buy a new set of 5-6.
