Partial tire replacement?

Needing to replace the tires on our 2013 Sunseeker 3100ss. Can't really afford all 6 right now so is there sort of a "best practice" in terms of how to replace them over time? Maybe the front two, then two of the rear in 6 months, then the final two. Just looking for ideas on replacement over time, if it matters. Thanks!

With my class A I always replaced the steer axle in pairs and never let them get very worn down. steer axle to inside dual inside to outside. that was how I did it.

Don't mix a worn and a good tire on the same side of your duals. They will have different rolling circumferences and this will put more stress on the larger tire. If there's a significant difference in tread depth, try to match the tires on the same side. Of course, if you're replacing them based on age instead of tread wear, there may not be enough difference to matter.
