08 F450 Tire Rotation/Spare Tire Question

I have a Job 2 F450 and was told by the dealer today they do not rotate these duallys because of different rims. The owners manual indicates that they only can be rotated side to side (but in the similar positions). If I had to use the spare tire, can it be used in any of the 6 positions or is it limited to the outer tires only? Re rotation, is it beneficial to move them if only from one side to the other?

Do you have aluminum wheels?
If so, your only option (short of removing the tires from the wheels and remounting/balancing) is to switch the front tires from L to R.

The 19.5's wear like iron.

If you have steel wheels...rotate away any way you like. There's at least two ways to rotate steels.
