Goodyear Endurance LHD ($7650) what is your experience with them?

I have a former Schneider truck, so it occurred logical to me why it had destroyed fender/faring in front of front drive axle.

 

Same tread. Virgin on a new tractor. Recapped with the same tread. Used this same or very similar tread since at least 2009. This replaced the G572.

 

I have good years on my truck and they lasted 280k ...one axle started wearing out uneven because i had issues with suspension , rest is still there and i wanna get michelins next hoping to squeeze 350-400k out of them . Last week quote was 500 installed for good year and 570 for michelin for drives...
I'd say if i didn't have suspension issue -325-350 should be no problem

 

My experience I after over 2 years and 200k… the traction sucks. They seem to ware like iron but I will never buy another set. I do flatbed in the Midwest. Wet, snow and dirt/ mud been stuck several times in the last two years. Only one time before that.

 

What was the suspension issue?

 

Good luck finding any Michelin tires, they are next to impossible to find right now.

 

I'm running the Marathons on my drives and they started feathering. Rotated them and they settled down but still a little feathering. Just did another rotate and alignment and they still are raised a little. Not sure if I'll buy them again. I have Endurance on the steers and no issues at all so far.

Not sure why guys run max pressure on their drives but this isn't a thread about tire pressure so I'll digress. I use the inflation table for my pressures.

 

Not here, at least not XDN2 or XZE's. I went in last week to order a set of each in LP 22.5. Warehouse said they had plenty.

Basically nothing though in LP24.5 or tall 24's

 

Good for one years, all the price of Michelin with the quality of a Chinese.

 

never had good luck with goodyears steers would wear out on edge. goodyear say it's normal called river ware. drives would feather even rotating every 50000 miles.
