Recaps or New Tires?

[pearce trucking]

I used recaps on drives for many years with similar results as others here report. I finally decided on some new michelins. While at the tire shop, I asked the manager his opinion.
He said, "They've always been good for US."
That was the end of caps for me. I didn't realize how much headache I was putting up with to save a few bucks. Not to mention fuel economy. I run otr, and I only use low rolling resistance virgin tires now.
