    I’ve had the worst luck out of Michelin. They always wanted to pull. I’d cross them and it went the other way.

    I run the highway control. I’ve tried hankook and yoko and neither wear as well as the highway control.
    Maybe @SmallPackage can chime in on any to avoid.

    Michelin only for the past 16 years! Wouldn’t change them for anything else. Stay away from Chinese tires

    Man you guys are brave, close to 200k on steers? I'm ready to mount new steers about 100k and roll those to the trailer.

    Xline energy if it fits your operation. Now everyone is different. I wouldnt recommend to a guy who spends time in scrap yards, or a farmer that only drives 10k per year. Must find what works with in your means.

    Michelin
    Bridgestone
    Firestone
    BFG
    Kelly
    Yokohama

    Would be my list.
     
    Rideandrepair Thanks this.

    Same here. Firestone 590s, now 591’s since Bridgestone bought Firestone.Good wear, Same tire as Bridgestones last steer design. When Bridgestone changes their steer, current design will become Firestone. Good price, readily available. Tried and True.
