    Michelin x line I got 145k and still 9-10/32nds left. I'm flatbed and usually 12300lbs on steers

    That guy that hit Continental- Very Good Tire...

    The one thats like 7/8 15/16 tread depth- (No I dont use the 28/32nds gizmo calculator.)
    Get 2 years or better on them on 12,000 pound axle,

    I Rum Cooper/Roadmasters rm234's- Why Im Sharing this secret-I Dunno- I Tried em All- The Coopers Stay Thick and Healthy For A long Time- Hauling Weight too, Not some cheesy Dry Van With Toilet paper inside.

    Same here, I used Michelin XZA3 only for years, but last time the tire shop didn't have heavy duty over 6000lbs rated @105 psi, and suggested to try BFG ST244 . They are significantly lower price, and excellent wear so far, I'm at 140k miles still look like new.

    I was a fan of Michelin XZA3, this truck came with the Bridgestone 283 A 16 ply, set back axel
    am one of those van drivers , you'ld have to have a large behind to wipe with the big rolls of paper I haul, I was very surprised, do like these 283's

    You can’t beat them for the price. I run local, lots of twisting and jobsites. There holding up excellent for my application and use.
