Since my tires are worn around 3/32", it sounds like my only replacement options would be 1 new tire that has been shaved down, or four new tires.
Being the type of person who worries a lot, I was really leaning towards replacing the tire, and not continuing to use this tire. Unfortunately this happened two days after DTD's ebay sale ended
So I think I am probably going to buy four new tires that are the same as the ones I have now, and hang on to the three partially worn tires in case something like this happens again.
I'm a bit skeptical. They do include a compact spare in models that don't have a front-wheel drive fuse. Also - manufacturing variations can often create more than a 1/4" circumference variation - even with tires with the same date code.
