$8,500 for Super Singles,......not this dog!!
I'm going with Firestone 690's a couple of new steel wheels and a set of Cats Eyes for truck and trailer,.....$3,674.00.
Your right no worries the fuel savings was not enough to justify it and the weight savings either.
Put that with my new tranny $4,500 and I've spent enough on this truck this week :wink:

I'd love to go with the new Alcoa's Mackman, but the price he quoted me was for the regular machine finished high maint. aluminum.
I just can't justify the price for the looks, or weight savings.
And I sure don't want to swap out my duals for them,..I have 6 good ones and 2 need to be replaced,....the $$ don't add up to nothing when fuel is $0.75 more now than in December.

If I had to do it over again, I'd have gone with the Durabrites (got bad advice). However, you can get guys to polish yours once a year for peanuts if you want...no big deal.
