    Someone in this thread hasn’t heard of Michelin XTE or Goodyear Endurance RSA. Specifically designed to be a trailer only tire.

    You're right. I have not heard of these tires. As a lowly company driver, I am only familiar with whatever tires the company puts on the tractor or trailer, and that is what I see.

    Thank you for pointing this out. I'm learning crap. :iconbiggrin:
     
    SmallPackage Thanks this.

    I was commenting to the guy who read you your rights on how you can tell it was a trailer type tire when there obviously is no such thing. Lol.
    And its the Michelin XTE. Old D’s uses them on their trailers.
     
    Sons Hero and Flat Earth Trucker Thank this.

    What happens when someone doesn’t bother to bring the trailer into a shop for maintenance!!:angryfire::angry5:

    Had to contact our Road Service department who sent someone out to replace 3 bad trailer tires. Trailer was preloaded with 44,200 pounds of bottled water. Apparently the trailer was supposed to have been routed into a terminal for repairs (there were 3 opportunities over the past 2 1/2 weeks) but someone didn’t care enough to do so,so yours truly ended up with the short end of the stick!
