Tire Running Costs
Posted by Steven on October 31, 2006
Which tire size will give me the lowest running cost? A L/P 22.5 or a standard 11R22.5? Please don’t factor in fuel cost.
Not an easy question to answer without knowing what type of service your truck (or trucks) run. I can say that most regional, pick-up and delivery type fleets prefer the 11R22.5 tire because it is more resistant to curb damage. Line haul fleet tend to prefer the low profile tires for a variety of reasons.
