super singles on spread

You'll replace them every 100,000 miles without fail. The guy that parks next to me has had them ever since he put a tarping system on his flat and needed to lower the weight. Supposedly the fuel mileage and less weight makes up for lasting half the life of regular tires.

 

Sounds like a fair enough price. You could run them to get a taste for whether you like them or not and when the tires are worn out you will still have good value in the aluminum wheels and casings.

 

You'd be stupid if you didn't buy them. Even if you just re-sell them you could make an extra $500 on the deal.

 

I'd look at installing a axle dump valve if you don't have one it will save tires

 

He hasn't said anything about fuel mileage since when he changed over a few years ago he added the tarp system and I know that hurts the mileage. He runs them on the tractor and trailer, and has a Volvo 780. He's run Bridgestone and Michelin, but prefers Michelin.

At that price, I'd buy them and try them. If you don't like them you can get your money back out of the rims alone.

 

i've never had them on a spread but i had Michland Energy X Ones on my drives before and had over 300,000 miles on them before i replaced them, they suck as drive tires but might be ok on a trailer, my concern would be the 40,000lbs you can have back there....thats ALLOT of weight on 4 tires i dont know what the weight rateing on them is. i got .25 better mpg with the Super singles.
