All I can say is I am glad I am a company driver and I didn't have to buy them. I don't even know what it cost. But man are these good in the snow and ice.

Prob around 3800$ or so, depending on discounts and what not. Honestly you save over the 2 or 3 years it takes to ware the current set down. Then its not really a hit so much and its one you were expecting.
Original Bender Thanks this. -
Those look an awful lot like a BFG DR 444. Company I worked for previously used those or the DR 675. I think they got the 444's for something like $535 per tire - new valve stems and all fees included. Set of 8 for the drives ran the company around $4,300 or so.
Original Bender Thanks this. -
That depends on the maintanance. Don't check wheel bearing tightness, shocks, and alignment. Them tires will be shot after 6 months.Lepton1 and Original Bender Thank this.

Well yes, but anyone thats paying for tires knows this and should be keeping up on alot of this anywho.

Tire guys didn't pull the stickers off!
Original Bender Thanks this. -
One would think. BUT, very seldom happens.
Other then oil changes. Maintanance isn't a priority with companies.
If the truck isn't broke, it's going to work.bottomdumpin Thanks this. -
I'm talking about O/O's or L/P's in gen.
we all already know that megas among other company's just go on a premise of wait until it breaks before we fix it.
