You are paying a "premium" price for the name Goodyear RV OR Michelin RV on the tire and they are a POS to boot. I installed Hankook AH-12 in size 270/70R22.5 4 years ago on the steer tires and last fall I replaced the rear. The price last year, out the door was $400/ea and I could not be happier with them.

Yep, Goodyear and Michelin. Both make an excellent truck tire, but charge a premium for them, while there are MANY companies that have a stellar reputation with the trucking industry for hundreds of $$$ less.
