Who rotates in their spare tire?

[langer1]

And if our tires aren't made by interco....?

Newer Jeep manuals recommend an X pattern. Who should we believe?

All I know for sure is radial tires should always must be run the same direction, so front to back for them. With non-radial tires the X pattern is fine.

Spare goes to RR. Rears go to the front. RF goes to LR. LF goes to spare. I don't know if it's the right way, but it is easy for me to remember. JIM.

That's what my Bridgestone warranty guide says to do so that's what I do.

Go by the tire manufacturer's specifications (espc. if under warranty.)

I work at a tire store, and I'l say that its best to rotate your spare in, as long as its the same sized tire.
A lot of times we see that the spare is a different size than what they put on the ground.
At the factory, the spare that they put in there, is sometimes, something that was left over from last years run. NOT always matching the other tires.
So pay attention to that.
