Do they pass inspection?

Have you been rotating them every 5,000 miles? How did the rear get so warn?

If they pass inspection, I'd rotate them. Buy new when ALL of them need replaced

I can't see the wear bars but looking the pictures both front and rear appear to be no more then 4/32. If it was mine I'd buy 4 new tires. Also I'd recommend buying a tread depth gauge they are cheap and easy to use/read.

No inspection in Ca. Rears got worn by driving hard offroad and not rotating.
