Obito hasn't even used shinra tensei, chibaku tensei or most likely any of the paths technique, he was about to use human realm on Anko to gain intel but kabuto refused(I'm not sure if it was in the manga since I saw it in anime. If it wasn't shown in the manga then my sincerest apologies
lol), I think his rinnegan is for show 
besides the six paths jinchuuriki I haven't seem him do much with rinnegan...... Why did kishi gave him the rinnegan anyway :eww:??

There's a lot of evidence that he can use the rinnengan fully.
He hasn't been using it to save chakra:
He knows human path:
He was taught all the six paths thechnique's by Madara:

yeah i know but i meant that if obito could actually use all of the paths he would becausse they all have the same rinnegan and since he cant it means he wont be able to in the future either because this means he needs both so unless he unlock the rinnegan on his own or gets rid of his sharigan and replaces it with the rinnegan he would be able to use the rinnegan to its full potential

preta path doesn't waste chakra, it restores it....so there would be no point in not using it; it would actually be more beneficial than kamui
and Obito was taught the rinnegan abilities before he even possessed them; that doesn't mean he has obtained them all

He can use them, He just being smart and conserving chakra when he has a rinnegan and an MS activated at the same time.
Obito has shown to be able to use the rinnegan fully,
Obito even Stated that he can revive Madara [who died years ago] with Rinne Tensei which is the 7th path indicating that He can use any tech he wants, It just wastes more chakra to use With one Eye instead of 2 being balanced.
That is the reason why Obito will die if he used Rinne Tensei on Madara because He only possess one eye and it takes more chakra to use a tech than someone like Nagato who had both eyes.
Also, Kamui is Better than using Preta path in most situations because why not phase through it rather than Using a tech that leaves you venerable to getting attacked while Sucking up chakra.
All in all, He can use the rinnegan, It's just Obito being Smart and conserving chakra and Knowing what tech to use at the right time.
It is also Plot why he isn't using rinnegan techs vs kakashi because it would be overkill. Sometimes, we gotta take things out of context and see what kishi is trying to do.

preta path restores the user with the chakra it absorbs......
if he's trying to conserve chakra, I don't understand why he wouldn't use it and instead let himself get stabbed by a chidori or absorb naruto's bijuu cloak arms instead of warping back into his dimension where Kakashi is punching him
the preta path also absorbs chakra almost instantly from what was shown

For your first reason, its completely off. Being within the range of a blast has nothing to do with the preta path. The path gives the ability to absorb chakra, not a gigantic explosion caused by the tbb.
The second he simply prefers his kamui, and the alliance would have disconnected him from the juubi with ease even if he did attempt to use preta path
Third reason was plot and slow reaction time
Fourth reason was already explained.
there are countless times in Naruto manga where a character did not Use a jutsu they knew to easily counter something. Doesn't mean that character can't use it.
Kishi does this and it is called plot.
We can't have obito spam Shinrai tensei or Soul removal tech on kakashi who lost to deva path without a fight.

that's one possibility yeah
but Obito has failed to use preta many numerous times....or at all when it could have gave him an advantage
sure this does happen with characters, but not all characters had the chance to fight as long as him. How many chapters was Obito vs Naruto/alliance already?
yet we haven't seen preta or shinra tensei even once
besides if he does have preta, that would make him virtually invincible since he can absorb any jutsu and warp out of the ones he can't absorb.....there would be no way to defeat him
and I'm going to just assume that he will eventually face Naruto 1v1.....and if he has preta+kamui, naruto can't really do anything about it
