Tire age vs wear

[bubblerboy64]

I am looking at tires: Yokahoma RY617 and Mich. XZ1 which are steer
tires and I am planning on using them as all position. I am getting
prices in the area of $375 to $400 out the door a tire. This sound
about right? I have some wheel issues to sort out but I am going to
move forward on this.

possible to run the 12's on the tag with 11's on the drive and put
new 12's on the steer?thanls,marvinMarvin SkaggsBuffalo, Ky.

so in the beginning and I got talked out of it by the tire dealer (of
all people)? And no it was not just one of the boys. I tend to not
argue with experts in their fields but lets face it, it's my
responsibility and my back side as well. I am taking the bus to a
local trucking center Friday for an oil change and filters. I'll get
the skinny on new tires. I am going to have to do some wheel changes
as well. I have tube tires in the back and tubeless up front. I guess
now is the time to go for Alcoa's and get every all the same. Gonna
hurt the ole pocket but lets face it, it has to be done. Thanks again
for all the help and "priceless" information. Now I have to figure
out all the issues with the studs, hubs, wheels etc. Anyone have info
on what I will need? John Heckmancentral Pa1973 FC >> Curt, I
