Michelin Tire Facts Update

[RainbowrvGreg]

Hi Mike and David, The last set I phased in on my lxi were BF Goodrich st230.10,000 miles now and I like them. I got on a cycle of dropping new rubber out front every 2 years. I tried to stay all Khumo but now I go for the best deal. 2 year old tires from the front go to the location of the 8 year old tires on the back. this way I never steer on 25 month old tires. No more dumptruck to spinn the 8 year old tires on so I just let the Mobil service tire guy have the 8yolds. when I had my dumptruck I would run them on the steers for two years and rip up new 11r 22.5 retreads on the twin screw drives every 8 to 12 months.
Phase-in is different then tire rotation. I think resale on a bus that has new tire phase-in set up would bring no negative impact and add a comfortable cost of ownership. the math is one tire every year.
