Good evening Everyone.
2002 Ford F350 4x4 extended cab 8ft bed with a very heavy brand new Lance 1172
I am on my 2nd set of Michelins - LTX 235/85/16 and air them up to 80 pounds cold. All 6 of them! They stay at 80 psi all the time unless I am airing down for the beach.
At the beach I have my auto-deflators set for 35 pounds when I air down.
My first set of Michelins - I got 82k out of them with a 6 tire rotation every 4000 miles. I could have gone 90k based entirely on thread wear but they were 6.5 years old and showing some cracking around the bead.
My current Michelins are only 3 years old and I have 49k on them as we speak. If everything works out - I want to break that 90k millage on my LTX2 tires
