DRW: adding new tires.
As some of you know I had a punctured sidewall on the passenger outer rear on a recent trip. Right now that one needs replacing, and the outer on the other side would be next. Dealer is telling me either just replace the damaged one in the same position, or all 4 across the back, which kind of makes no sense to me. Steer tires are one year old, inside rears are still in pretty good shape. Don't remember their age and don't have access to the truck. My thought is to put the fronts on the outside rear, and 2 new ones on the front. Seems better than just one new on the outside. Would that work considering tread heights? Other suggestions? My bank account objects to 4 new ones, but if necessary will go that way. Thanks for your responses.
