Looking to install new tires.
Looking hard at going with a 295-75-22.5 vs 295-80-22.5. Much cheaper and also easier to find in a pinch. Thoughts or experience? Thanks

How much weight is on the front axle of your 02 American Eagle? A 295/80 is good for 6550 lbs at 100 psi BUT the 295/75 is only 5780. At 115 psi there is a 1000 lb difference in what they can carry. The 75 is 511 revs/mile while the 80 is 497... a 3% difference in your speedometer.
On my rig instead of replacing my 295/80 I went with 315/80 on the front and 11R22.5 on the rear. Had to increase my rear pressures from 80 to 90 because of the lower load rating of the 11Rs but they are almost the same revs/mile.
