    Interesting. That email must be new in the last few months. Thank you for the heads up.

    Well, I realized the other day I had over 120k on the Doublecoin tires I bought from Loves last year, so here's what they look like now.

    They are kept at 100 psi. Far as I know, none of them has ever been under load at less than 90 psi. Had a loose passthrough valve stem cap on one once.

    I am currently under a two-drop Walmart load, and am being told something mighty strange.

    Has anyone heard of Walmart DCs doing FCFS deliveries of partial loads?

    I have never seen any Walmart DC take a load without a clear delivery time.

    I’ve only seen appointments only. I have had some let me in early, but those were ones I was a regular.

    3 of them look like they were under for a bit.

    The bottom pic looks the worst.
    front inside tire. The middle sticks out higher.

    Wear looks really good otherwise.

    Diesel force clean is what everybody is doing around us. It does the whole system. Look it up it really cleans the intake to the exhaust.
