| How`s the tread wear on your stock BFG M/T`s? I`ve got 11,000 mi. now, and they still have about80%. One thing I noticed was when I rotated them recently, they became pretty noisy. Not rediculously so, just normal for a mud terrain. But I thought it was a little odd that they used to be so quiet prior to rotating. No biggie though as I`m used to the hum. | |

| I getting my MT's rotated Friday, I hear it really saves the life if you rotate them 3-5000 miles. | |

| yup. Any longer and I`ve run into scalloping,cupping and uneven wear. I know it`s because of other problems, but not rotating doesn`t help. | |

| Don't you need to rebalance tires when they are rotated? or is that incorrect? | |

Probly a good idea. Thats why I get mine from Discount tire, easier to just pay for lifetime bal & rot. | |
