Many tire problems are due to owners who cheaped out and purchased a 4 or 6 ply tire when an 8 or or 10 ply tire was required. Then to add insult to injury they run the tire either under or over inflated. The manufactures office costs, trucking, warehousing and dealer markup is all within a few dollars for any tire of a given size and application. If the tire costs $100.00 more then you are getting nearly $100.00 more quality & quantity. Checking the weights of various tires will at least indicate the quantity. And lets not forget when comparing tires not compair apples to oranges. The ecno line of Firestones won't rate against the best tires Titan has to offer. As for traction? Go to a "stock" tractor pull and see what's on the top three tractors in each class. Odds are it's Firestone All Traction F & R or Traction F and R.
