    I stayed with Bridgestone R123, $3700. Though Michelin would be good as well.

    300k out of a set of tires? I get 80k on steers. 100k on drives. Maybe 60k on trailer... you must have unlocked the secret code to great tire life.

    I've had crap luck with truck tires as of late. However, my trailer tires after 80k now are looking great! They have a ton of tread left and no crap wear. They have the usual spread axle rounding on the shoulder though. Even that isn't horrible though.

    Even when i was doing otr driving. I never got more than 8 months out of a set of tires. Not sure what im doing wrong. Or how someone can get 300k out of a set. That just seems crazy. But ive heard a couple guys now that are getting those numbers
