Tire rotation with duals
Do most owners of RV's with dual rear wheels get their tires rotated regularly? If so, what is the rotation pattern? I will appreciate any feedback.

I don't rotate the tires by position, as most others, since their lifespan is not limited by treadwear in any way.
I do rotate the tires around their axis every single time I move the motorhome; failing to do so leads to very rapid and uneven treadwear (and very bad gas milage). :B
I just got back from the tire store an hour or so ago to price out a set of tires, as chance would have it. I probably would have waited another year, but had an unfortunate incident with a curb that put a nice deep divot in a sidewall...so rather than have a single mismatched tire to contend with (and trying to figure out how to distribute the others sensibly), I figured it was time. The tread still looks practically new.
