    I have been running Firestone FS591, they are solid. Priced well, nowadays... Will purchase it again, bc had seen a few times that Michelin unevenly wears off.

    I have zero issues with the Firestone FS591's. They have been a solid, durable choice for both of my 9900's and they have held up well with the off-road use while pulling my step deck.

    I got FS591's on my steers. The passenger side started getting toe wear at about 75k miles. I put a used Michelin energy x-line on just that one and then got it aligned. Now running 2 different steer tires but they both look great so far. I was fortunate to be able to get a used Michelin in great condition with nearly the same tread left on it as the other FS 591. I'll run these hopefully another 50k and then likely just get new Michelin's next time. They are more expensive but I have never regretted getting a Michelin.
