First tire rotation @ ~5,000 Miles
Rotated my tires today, having just crossed the 5,000 mile mark. I try to rotate every 5k with all seasons on a square setup.

2 - Orig L R 0.2565 0.2955 0.2985 0.2575 0.2770
3 - Orig R F 0.253 0.2875 0.2955 0.256 0.2730
4 - Orig R R 0.259 0.302 0.2905 0.253 0.2761
Overall Average 0.2767
The overall average tread depth comes in a about 9/32". The tire spec indicates about 10/32" new, so that's not too bad for 5k of summer driving. The 1-4 above is where I measured each 'circumference' tread groove beginning with the outside and moving inward.
