Or if you replace the two worst with new then those up front.

Nope, this is exactly opposite of my thinking and experience, even in cars, but probably even more so in a truck.

Ding, ding, ding, we have a winner. Not only is the back the lighter end, but it's also the end that's going to make things especially exciting if it hydroplanes. Spontaneous tail out action on the freeway at speed going in a straight line can be a major pucker moment at a minimum. Granted, the difference between 10% and 20% should be pretty small, but I'd put the better tires on the back.
