    Just shoed the old girl up with BS 710 ecopia, and Michelin XZA3 on the steers. All 22.5 lp.

    They tell me the 710's are not as quiet as Michelin x line energy D, haven't noticed them being noisy yet.

    Kevin Rutherford swears by those X line energy Ds... never used em myself, but heard lots of good things.

    The key issue is to take really good care of your tires, and they'll take really good care of you in return. Proper inflation is absolutely the most important thing you can do for safety, longevity, and fuel economy, regardless of brand.

    One thing for sure, keeping the tires properly inflated keeps them from dipping out & making much noise. I learned that back in the 70's with my first set of radial tires.
