Michelin's North American "Go Wide, Save Green" tour will feature real world examples of commercial trucking fleets and owner-operators who have benefited from the improved fuel efficiency, weight savings, and time savings that Michelin X One wide single tires deliver.

I just don't like the superwide.... I still have heard many stories about them and how they handle... I have a Buddie who I know is a dang good driver have trouble with them in adverse weather conditions... I also have heard drivers say they like them but have heard more saying they don't...
I rather fill my tires with nitrogen then go with a superwide...

Another thing about them is if your rolling at interstate speed you have a blow out you have a really good chance of damaging the rim, they are almost expensive as the dang tire is....
