Don't sweat the small stuff. Lynda rode her GZ over 5000 kms on vacation. Not a problem if you start with decent tires and maintain them. My present tires have 18000 kms on them and they are going to take me to the far north this summer. Then they will be used up and replaced. The rear already has a plug covered by a patch and a tube installed. Been that way for most of it's life. I found a really nasty nail a week after the tire was mounted.
