Question 67

I was wanting to know what would be the best tire recommended to use on a spread axle rock trailer? I run 11R24.5 tires and my spread is 10′2″ wide. Most of my hauls I gross around 85,000 lbs. and lots of turning. It seems like I’m changing tires all the time and it’s getting expensive. I’m going to try the Spread Axle recap from Goodyear as soon as I get them back from capping. What would you suggest for a virgin casing?

We have several of the 2005 Ford F-150 pickups. The problems are the tires. Ford put 225/65R17 tire on them and we have problem locating tires for repacement. Does Goodyear make a tire in this size if so who has them in my area. The zip code is 20109. Thanks

I have a customer interested in purchasing trucks out of inventory, but he requires super singles in his operation. Can you recommend a wheel/tire conversion? The trucks are 05 Freightliner Columbia’s with G372 1R22.5’s, Con Met aluminum hubs, RT-40-145 R-SRS axles.
Thanks!

On supersingle drive tires there is no tread pattern to move water to the outside have there been complaints of hydroplaning?
