    Lol...yeah they tried that with Trlrs for like a lil over a year, summer came and so many blowouts from heat, that went back to new...lol....they always prefer Michelin 1st or if not available where you need a replacement BF Goodrich is 2nd choice as a rule. Drives are new if they need to be replaced out on road, now if your in Joplin you could get a used near new drive tire same goes fir trlr tire, again this us at Joplin and also Laredo

    I've seen some Conway TL in the past ...That the drives went over a mine field.... Never did understand why you would keep push fate on those ... I always went to a T/A and tried to get them replaced ...Ultra one points as a bonus
    Sometimes it would take 2 or 3 tries to get it approved but usually you'd get two new Michelins

    Unless Mr. Brown and Mr. Schmidt are in charge again, I wouldn't bet on it.
