Tire rot Service TEch said I need new tires due to tire rot on the inner rim area. The tires are not that old and still have good tread on them…What is the story? I doubt that the tire has "rot" on the inner rim but, it could be some sort of solvent or chemical that has done some damage to the tire. If there was weathering of the tire, it would more likely be in the outside of the tire since this is where it could get sun exposure.
295/75R22.5 Tires in place of 11R22.5 tires Can a 295/75R22.5 be used in place of a 11R22.5? I would be changing both steer tires…both tires are LR-H. If you change only the steer tires to the LP22.5 size, you will be lowering the front of the truck about a half inch. I can't imagine that this would have any negative affects.
295/75R22.5 vs 11R24.4, which gets better fuel mileage I’m ordering a new truck and when specking tire size which size (should) get better fuel mileage? Tire size makes no differrence to my fleet, but will have to recalculate the rest of the drive train specs. All other things being equal, the 295/75R22.5 size should give you better mileage. This is mainly do to the fact that it will make the vehicle closer to the road which is better for aerodyamics and the better for fuel economy. Also, we offer the Goodyear Fuel Max tire line in this size (G395 LHS for steer, G305 LHD for drive and G316 LHTfor trailer) and this will result in even better fuel economy for you.
