It depends on the climate where you live. Around here it gets pretty hot in the summer. I use the 15w50 in both my trucks and then change to 10w30 in the winter. IMO 5w30 is for people who live in Alaska or something.

Thanks,
Been using 15w50 in my 98Z for a while now with no problems, just wondering if it is safe for a motor with 10K miles
