    Tanker guy running PA and WV hills at 78-79K lbs loaded regularly in a Cascadia 126, 13.5 front axle.

    I got 125K out of my steeMiche' XDN's last time. Shoulder tread wear, weight and speed induced.

    Switched over to Bridgestone M283's per Southern Tire Mart, Mt Airy NC recommendation. 14ply to 16 ply. More solid shoulder. These have been good tires for 20K miles

    It's either run it hard into the corner full Jake, and wear out the steers, or wait behind guys who don't know how to drive with weight in the hills.

    I also need recommendations for solid shoulder Bridgestone drives...
