    My company always runs recap tires,on the trailers,good ones from Canada Tire if they get changed there or Southern Tire if we are down south.The tire crews go through the yards daily and check all tires at the terminals.Run from Texas to Alaska.

    I just bought my second set of kumho KLT trailer tires, first set I put in. Trailer that got totaled but I liked them, also have a set on a dump trailer in the yard which have also held up good which is weird since usually one application doesn’t work with the other, trailers I don’t get to fancy on but I still run nothing but michilens up front

    All position are basically steers and last a little longer if you have a spring ride trailer
