Ok, for everyone below who loves Titan tire... I've got to ask, seriously, how many are actually carrying a load on these tires that would come close to their rated carrying capacity? Anyone?
I'd suspect that most aren't carrying their advertised capacity by half, and that's why they don't blow... Put a good load on them and they blow.
I can't complain about Titan's ability to pull. I had a set of the long bar/short bar on a tractor and they wore well and pulled well, but were a bit rough on the road... but that's true of all long bar/short bar tires that I've seen. For me, it's Firestone or Michelin radials, depending on which I expect to have a lower operating cost over the next 10-15 years.
Right now it's mostly Michelin because I have a very good dealer who prices them very well, and is actually a bit ashamed of the prices for those tires... I won't complain as long as I get 2-3 times the life from them that I would get from a Firestone Field and Road. So, fire away! Rod
