Thanks. Any recommendations for good steer tires? Haven't shopped for them before and not sure where to start. Run flatbed, legal loads, mostly highway, but I do go in to tight places a lot, such as NYC. 12,000lb front axle usually weighing in about 11,200.

I buy the top of the line Michelin 16 ply vs the standard 14 ply. I have a heavy front end, and the tires wear nicely, high speed balance them and check pressures religiously. I run them at 110 psi. In six years, I am on my second set.
