22.5 or 24.5s on a flatbed spread axle?

I like tall rubber myself, lo pros are all cool but for me my personal preference is 24.5 tall rubber

Super singles, one blows and there you are.

Tandem pops a hole you can still limp to the tire man some times.

 

Don't the 22s get you better fuel economy?

 

Good point, I never have had anything with super singles so have zero experience to be honest, the few times I have seen a super single with a flat they were in the middle of I 80 in Wyoming and places like that. So that was a little unnerving to see someone stranded like that.

But like I always say, if it works for you it is good.

 

i see more and more ss on spread axle flats. i tried them on mine but they kept wearing on the insides bad.as far as the truck goes i wouldnt run anything else.

 

We run 22.5's on our trucks and flats. Our "used" steer tires end up on our trailers.

We run ss on our hoppers and have had good luck so far and the 400 lb weight savings is nice for commodities. Its all local work with them.

 

I would run lp22.5 myself, I believe they have a lower rolling resistance than the 24.5's.

 

I run 22 lp on the flat, always nice to keep the height down, taller loads etc
