That tire is what is called a regional tire. Made for scrubbing, rubbing curbs, and still run on the freeway. Around 70,000 miles, the shoulders of the tires will start to cup out-but I doubt you'll get to that kind of mileage before the tire wears out with time. Good selection for the steers. Weigh the front and run the proper inflation-you'll get the best ride. Good Luck, TomC

Check the tire speed limit. Some tires designed for local driving do have the thicker sidewall to prevent failure from hitting a curb, but because of that thicker sidewall they cannot reject the heat from higher speeds thus may have speed limits of as low as 55.

About the only tires not at 75mph are the construction super singles and transit bus tires. Firestone FS560 are 75mph tires. Good Luck, TomC

 It won't mater what you pay for the tires, you will still pay into the Obamacare system. It seems the Dumbocrats think a tire is A MEDICAL DEVICE!!, so you get to pay two excise taxes on each tire on top of the state taxes..>>>Dan >:(
