Default 35 inch mtr's 5 tire rotation or not

I just put 5,000 miles on my tires and need some help. Should I do a 4 or 5 tire rotation. I am considering 5 since I may go to a larger size once these wear out. If I go to 5 tire rotation How do you do it. I have heard and read different options. Also what tire pressure do you run on 35's daily. I also have heard various numbers from 25 to 45. Right now I am at 30 psi. any suggestions will be helpful

Andy we just did this on ours...at 5K and had all five rotated and while they were at it I had the TPMS sensors removed and went with rub stems. Moved the new number five to the front left otherwise followed normal rotation. As for psi that's usually determined by personnal preference so you'll get a dozen different opinions. We did run 28-30psi for comfort but now are running at 35psi for gas mileage.
