315/80 vs 12R - was Overweight
The price was $709.89 each, before a lot of taxes, etc.
The MSRP is something over $800, but I'm not sure if anyone ever charges full list. So far the X Coach is only 295/80, which is an inch less in diameter than the 315/80 XZA-2 and 1.3 inches less than the 12R XZE* To handle your weight, assuming equal weight on each axle end: 315/80 XZA-2 95 PSI 295/80 X-Coach 110 PSI 12R XZE* 115 PSI On 3/26/2009 at 1:02 AM Bob Lawrence wrote: >Hi Don, >What did you have to pay for the steer tires? >Next month I want to get new steers. >I see Michelin has new X Coach XZ bus tires on their website. >Trying to figure what way to go. >My front end is 13,800 lbs. now. >Bob Lawrence >84 PT36 >Laguna Atascosa NWR, Los Fresnos, Texas (Where a guy shot himself to death >today) > >> Got my new steer tires today, 315/80R Michelin XZA-2 Energies.
