What tire should my bus use?
Posted by Tim on July 27, 2006
For a 1993 Thomas flat nose school bus, I need two front steers 11R22.5 and 4 - 11R22.5 rears. Should I put recaps on? If so should I go with a series or b series? I was quoted $25.00 different in each tire. The b with double layer rubber is cheaper than a.
Retread would work great on the rear of your bus. I am not sure what you mean by a series and b series but, some of my expert friends here think you may mean a virgin casing vs one that has already had one retread. If this is what you mean, I suppose I would suggest a retread on virgin casing. It could also depend on the planned usage of the bus. If you are taking long trips with it, I'd spend the extra $25. If it is just for local trips, a second retread on a quality casing should be fine.
