With not very much care to mine (waited too long on the last rotation) I'm at between 30-40k on them with a little under half tread left.

I've got 305/70 BFG Mud T/A's on 16X10's with 12-13,000 miles and the little **** on the shoulder of the tires aren't even gone yet. Rotate every 10,000.

I have only had mine for about 500 miles and they are great. My tire guy just said to rotate them every 7000 miles and they would be fine.

Good rule of thumb for MTs is to rotate them every 3000-4000 miles or every oil change. I used to work for 2 different tire stores so I dealt with this all the time.
