Tire Shopping
The differences between the XZ2 and the XZE are that the XZE is a long-
haul all-position tire, the XZ2 is also, but considered their premium
steer tire. The XZ2 has a de-coupling groove to prevent uneven wear at
the edge of the tire (significant on the steer axle), and a pretty much
straight groove tread with sipes for traction, very quiet. The XZE has
a more conventional zig-zag tread which potentially could sing more.
Last and most significant is the XZE tread is deeper, which could
potentially cause more tread squirm while driving and reduce
response/control somewhat.

In discussing these differences with an Engineer at Michelin, it was
agreed that although the XZ2 is clearly the best choice for the steer
axle, the XZE would serve as well on the drive and tag axles. For a
coach, the quietest and best-response tires all-around are probably the
best choice however, which favors the XZ2.

Jeff, Will you be in Frankenmuth??

Thanks for the explaination.Will decide and order late summer/fall.
Will replace the steer tires first, depending on this outcome,
the rears get replaced, next year. ( Long term tire planning)

Tires over 5 years old are planters. They can't be re-capped.
My Michelins had great tread and I paid 4 bucks apiece
for proper disposal.

I'd have to answer you from jail.......that's a real no - no around here,
not to say it isn't done....I just saturate
the whole area with a couple hundred gallons of diesel fuel and lite it
off.......'course the neighboring trees
get pretty scorched.... blair

We did light up a stack of stumps a couple of years ago. Probably no less
than 15 mansanita stumps full of dirt
and junk and piled well of 12 feet high.....took a day to get it going and
it burned for three weeks....
