Tire Replacement Question

My 2015 X5 has about 11,000 miles on it with the 20" ContiSport Performance Runflats. This weekend I wound up with a large screw in each front tire (I drove over where a dumpster had been unknowingly) and each are being replaced (I have the warranty luckily).

In addition, the right rear tire was replaced about 3,000 miles ago which leaves the right left being the only one with 11,000 miles on it.

Do I need to go ahead and replace the left rear tire so that they will all match more closely or should this be okay?

Get a tread stick and check. As long as the tread is decent, you should be ok. Normally, it's always advised to change things in pairs, but you shouldn't have any issues from what I've read and seen. Others that have these tires will probably have better/more detailed advice.

They 'should' be replaced in pairs to maintain a balanced rotating circumference. I can't remember what the +/- is, but the same bodes true for front to back.
