life of a tire
Posted by robert from las vegas, NV, US on April 10, 2009
What is the average miles you can expect out of a semi truck tire.
Are you asking about a steer tire, drive tire or trailer tire? Is the truck going across country with very few stops, regional deliveries within a few hundred miles of homebase or local pick up and delivery? Treadwear mileage is much different in the southeastern US than it is when traveling over the Rockies. Fleets with common equipment, similar routes and standard tires find great differences in treadwear due to different driving styles. In other words, there are far too many variables to give one number.
