Hi Jimmy,

I recently purchased 6 new Michelin XZE 16ply 11R-24.5 (regional tires with reinforced sidewalls and rock rejection technology). Mounted, balanced, tax-out the door, $2,950.00, or $492.00 each. I'd personally stay away from China tires. They look good, but remember tires are more than big black things that are round, roll and can support the coach. EVERY tire model that is made for big rigs have a specific mission in life. For instance on Michelin tires- XZA3 is a fuel efficient line haul steer tire; XDA3 is a fuel efficient line haul drive tire; XTE is a line haul trailer tire; XZE is an all position regional tire for lots of turning and scrapping; XDE is a regional drive tire; XZA1 is a bus tire for over the road; XDA-HT is a high torque tandem drive tire please keep that in mind while your searching for tires.
