I'm getting ready to head back East from PHX to NC next week. My preferred route is I-40 but I seem to remember a post on here a while ago that its all orange construction barrels through all of Arkansas (did a search but can't find the post). I coul...
I'm researching tire prices for a set of 295/80R 22.5 tires. The prices vary "all over the place" from the "junk" Chinese brands to $800-$900 for American brands like Goodyear. When someone posts on here asking for tire recommendations, the responses...
My '06 Beaver Patriot Thunder has a C-13 Cat rated at 525hp. The guy parked next to me last week had a similar size MH (looked like a Prevost but wasn't). It also had a Cat C-13 but it was rated at 475hp but with more torque. I know Cat can change en...

I've always thought that any tire that does not have cross treads can be used as a steer tire. Interesting question. Hope you share the results of your investigation with us.
I had a 37' Beaver with a 250 HP Cat. Towed a gokart race trailer with it. It served me well for 10 years when I was on the East coast. I moved West when I retired and found I was most unhappy with it in the Rockies. It made it up all the hills OK bu...
