Tire dealers LOVE when people come in and they get to sell 4 tires when they really only needed 1...

All of the tires on your car rotate at different speeds... and NO road is perfectly straight. T

You need to look in your manual.... there will be some sort of tolerance listed for your tires. It should read something to the effect of +/- 2/32 or some other fractional number. I seriously doubt if your tires have only 10K miles on them, that they are worn more than 1/32 - 2/32. You need to measure the tread depth on the remaining tires and check the tolerance.
