    I was thinking I would put some more reputable brand tires on the steer axle. I can afford 2 higher priced tires just not 8.

    I had a pair of Kelly KSA's put on mine for about $850 OTD at a Wingfoot. That even included $50/ea casing credit on the Sailuns. I refused to take home even the better of the two take-offs for a trailer recap.

    I've got a job and a life thanks very much! Thats the whole reason I buy economical tires, so I don't have to work all year to pay for my tires!
    How many products are on your truck that are "American made"? I bet it's a short list!
    All the chrome and chicken lights are no doubt made in some foreign country. What about the fuel you put in ? Do you only buy fuel from American wells?
    Youre living in a fantasy land man, globalization is the way of the world and me buying tires from china is not "robbing" money from your countries economy. Why don't you look to you're own countries leadership to blame for your economical problems than blaming your fellow truckers ! Who did you vote for?

    Wow all over tires...... had one of my st244s start to wear on an inside rib still.got 9 32s left so after 150 k miles running heavy i pulled it saved. It for a spare......talked to the tech at loves said he had a few of those come back wearing very badly uneven etc so i decided to keep running by bfgs..... big consideration for me is that i can recap the casings and the rr for those tires is horrible 132 for a stear. Is horrible
