Five tire rotation?
Hey does anyone do a five tire rotation? If so, what do you do for the TPMS? Is there a way to have all five tires with a TPMS and then tell the truck to ignore the spare or something?
Side question, anyone have opinions in the Toyo Open Country M/T?

I purchased a matching wheel and tire for a spare, it also has the TPMS. it does not interfere with the 4 tires running on truck. Not sure what happens if I used the spare and take out a running wheel.... does the TPMS get dropped and picks up the new one? IDK either way the truck will drive

I bought a matching #5 wheel for my spare. It’s easy to reprogram the TPMS after you rotate the spare in. You will just need a little tool that looks like a garage door opener.

Not a hassle at all, in fact it’s more convenient.
1. If a tire is destroyed (it’s happened on every one of my past vehicles - city life) I have a spare with the same level of wear that I can just swap in.
2. When rotating tires I jack up one corner and put the spare on. Move to another corner, move, move.

As far as the Toyo M/T's I have them on my truck and they are just as good as the A/T's I use to run. Ran them through the snow a couple of months ago up in Yellowstone, never had to use the chains. Had BFG's before that, now I'm a Toyo guy.
