    Hell having them done on the truck would bout make it worth a trip down there to have it done. No one I've heard of will do it on the truck around here. I'd love to do that

    Hey brother, that XZE don't have a cupping groove on the shoulder. I almost ordered a set of those last week, but my tire guy talked me into the Michelin X Line cause of the groove and said they were good especially for a steer application.

    Now I'm curious, how's the outside shoulder on the passenger side hold up on those? I like the way those look

    I was never a name brand guy. Then I got a deal on a set of Goodyear G282 drives when I had that international. I put a set on this KW. I don't know if I could be talked into going back to cheap tires again. The increase in miles I get out of them make up for the higher price.

    I run a set of cheap Kumho 16 ply on the trailer but it's hard to keep any tire for long on a spread.

    Ran a set of XZA3’s to 196k on a daycab Volvo. Still had 6/32 but riverwearing on the right outside mainly, Tons of tight turns, lot of backing and scrubbing in tight places, company piss poor maintenance program greasing the front end once every 35-40k, original shocks at 650k. I did maintain the tire pressure and keep the 5th wheel greased myself.

    Bridgestone 283 Ecopia’s suck, 110k and they are river wearing.

    Yes, that’s how he had them stored in the box. We are picking up.

    Says he won’t pull forward till he is all strapped down because of safety.


    He had all his safety gear on till he pulled over here to load then took it off?
