One time i had middle tread go down before outer and tire was always at 95psi -
What made you decide to run 95psi? I’m assuming you’re talking about running your drives at 95 and not your steers. -
So the tire industry decided to cya and compound tires to wear faster to get them worn and disposed of quicker. They cut that time in half. 5 Less years and less time to fail.
It also didn’t help that the “green” movement and california “smartway” mandate outlawed the use of many chemicals that were used in compounds to make them get better mileage without cracking apart. Lower rolling resistance has proven to not guarantee to give you more miles.
One major manufacturer now uses “orange oil”( yes from oranges )in there compounds to combat ozone cracking damage.feldsforever Thanks this. -
