Think what I'll do is put fronts on opposite side to rear and on inside and incorp the spare to outside rear, that matches the size best.
I've got some good measurement's on tires now and will re-evaluate in 3,000 miles.
Another thing that has me wondering how come on the right side rear tire wear is uneven between dually's? Same type of tire, same birthday, put on same time. I was thinking crown or road or weight or combo of both???
