I rotate my 5th tire often, 2nd oil changes at the latest,
to keep it simple I rotate them like a clock,
this way i never forget which way they go,
tires have all worn evenly,

tires are/were rated for 60,000 km.
i'm now on 110,000 already and will get through this winter.

Don't be a newb and end up with 4 bald tires and one new one,
use your fifth and drive the tires longer,
when its time for new tires (after lift, etc.)
buy a new set and repeat...

Here is one of those horror story threads I was talking about. There are lots of similar stories out there. You can find this thread in this JK forum. Have fun!

Re: Insurance question Tires on Jeep WRANGLER
different tread wear can def kill your drivetrain. thats why you should always replace tires 4
at a time on any 4x4 vehicle. unfortunately just like tire warranty the tread wear is on you
so you will likely not be able to get anymore out of them but you shoulda def got 3 more
tires when u replaced that one. it doesnt take much wear to make a difference either thats
why you should rotate your tires regularly too. its a crappy deal but i dont think you'll get any
more from the insurance company but good luck let us know how it pans out
