We run them on all our mixer trucks and they all wear good. Granted they are different than OTR truck tires. I like them better when its soft. I would like to try a dump with a set on it to see if it floats a little better than duals at least you wouldn't have to dig rocks out from between them all the time

The test fleet for Diamler is running a bunch of them with good results in the NW & has not had any hydroplaning issues but do not run in the snow due to a lack of usable data on the timed routes since the routes the tech's laid out are for certain speeds if you hang iron it invalidates the whole run.

Whatever anyone else thinks or says about them I have noticed this:

The are WAY quieter when they pass me than doubles. By this I figure they roll easier therefor they must get better mileage.

I don't KNOW anything, this is just what I think based on what I have observed.
