when the times comes, I suggest Goodyear duratrac. I've got 30,000 mile on mine. Went 20,000 miles before rotating. I highly recommend them. Quiet. Good on highway. Good off road. Wear evenly. Others on here have also liked them, which is why I have them a try.

MT tires will "feather" no matter what you do. After you rotate, it takes a bit for the treads to equalize. Not a big deal.

I hear ya, I went nearly 100,000 miles before my first rotation. I kinda like the sound as it warns everyone I'm coming.
