    If you don't mind me asking, what is pretty cheap? I think you pull for the other big owner-op company. So if you buy them through their national account I could probably get them close to the same through ours.

    In January, I put two on for 600ish total(tires, mounting, stems, disposal)in PA, which doesn't have tax on trucking parts. There's been a few price increases since then, but should be pretty close, given that. Landstar has some great tire prices.

    Thanks fortycalglock, I will check with Mercer and see what I can get those for. I paid $269 a piece for these chinese pieces of crap. And that was out the door, I mounted them myself. No national account on these.

    i run 115 to 120 lbs on my yoke's also have a couple of hankooks on, the yoke's wear really good. i have learned that if you haul any kind of weight on the tires that 115 to 120 lbs is the way to go. never have had a blowout. after saying this i will probably will.:biggrin_25524:

    You know I ran into this old school trucker and we got to talking about tires, he told me 112-115 on all my tires. I did it figuring it wasn't going to hurt because I needed tires soon, I got another month out of them so thats I run now..
