    Some of the LTLs would order the new trailers with top of the line steer tires.
    As soon as they were delivered on went the caps.

    Probably because they ONLY use their own tires to recap, so they know the condition and the duty cycles of the tries.

    Yeah and hitting curbs is a no, no for Walmart drivers but every truck entrance to enter stores wasn't built in a perfect world. That said I worked at a company than ran recaps many years ago always loaded to gvw and every summer it was the same thing popping tires. Haven't seen that here, knock on wood.
