5k is fine for me. As a matter of fact, at 5k I do both of these:

I change oil (mobile1 synth)
Rotate all 5 bfg MTs (as indicated in manual)

I rotate my Grapplers about every 5k or until the fronts start Howling. I do not rotate my spare.

Default no spare

i feel like if you bought them you should get the useage out of them that was the point or if you want to hold offi you never use it and sell it i dont know you get more wear out of ur tires wiht it extra 20 percent so the 20 percent on the 1000 because of 4 tires saves you 200 so it alrayd makes it worht it to use the tires thanks
