Tire rotation

Any thought on tire rotation pattern? Should you include the spare?

I have an 03 V8 with Michelin Cross's.

Thianks, just finished reading it.

I think I'm going to follow the following 5 tire rotation

spare to right front.
right fron to right rear.
right rear to left fornt.
left front to left rear.
left rear to spare.

....and run 35 psi in my Michelin Crosses, checked before driving with a digital gauge.

Friday I watched the local Toyota dealer mechanic rotate tires on a vehicle just like mine with the following pattern

right front to right rear.
right rear to right front.
left front to right rear.
right rear to left front
left rear was never touched.
It was a challenging job. After watching him I was tempted to ask, who's on first.

He did check the tire pressure in the right rear. I guess he got what he was expecting and since most tires get to spend some time on the right rear, he did not need to check any of the other tires.

So, like the other thread, I'm going to rotate them myself.

I am also goint to go to Dicsount Tire and buy a life time balance for about $30 and let them balance thre tires after I rotate them.
