Continental tires do not buy them for a Tractor Trailer. They are Cheap Junk! They are Crap on Wet Roads...
The Steers have a Wear Pattern that at 25,000 they pull to the right and got to be swapped (rotated). Contact Freightliner and any Service Sup will tell you. They are Cheap Junk. So for you that are Specking out Trucks Remove them from the plan as they are truly junk. Don't matter if its Steers or Drives. Not worth a crap on Wet Roads they float poor water separation and they are not worth a hoot in the snow either..
Garbage is taken out.
Have a Nice day.
