Yet another tire rotation question

[Okey0]

I would like to incorporate the spare tire into the rotation scheme. Where should it be placed, and what tire should be put in place of the spare? I did a rotation at 6,500, just doing the 4 (rears to front, fronts criss/crossed to the back). I figure I can squeeze a few more miles if I start doing a 5 tire rotation. Seems like a waste to leave that full size spare under the truck and never use it. I now have 12k and am ready to rotate again.

I work my spare into the rotation. I've been using the following pattern:



Spare -> RF

RF -> LR

LR -> LF

LF -> RR

RR -> Spare



(Draw it out on paper, it will be clear). I chose to put the spare on the right front because at the first rotation it happened to be the most convenient place. Right rear becomes the new spare.
