    I am rescuing a 2018 FL Cascadia with only 41k. The passenger side 283a is already falling apart.

    I had a set of 283a wear out in about 75k. Both outside shoulders had bad wear.
    Last set of xza went to almost 150k. alignment checked before putting another set of xza on.
    No other tire worth buying imo

    This truck is a Ryder lease truck. On my Volvo I am done using any Bridgestone product. I recently replaced my steers to Michelin's and glad I did.
