    Deadhead miles are usually included in the estimates. Deadhead pay will be offered occasionally (I got paid for 990 miles DH on top of the settlement) and will show up as a seperate line of income on your settlement.
    Not sure about tires, but I am expecting the super singles to last about 200k to 250k. Expected cost for the good low rolling resistance michelins is about $800 per tire.
