I worked for a big truck company years ago as a mechanic.They had more than 10,000 trucks.None of the steer tires were Goodyear.Now thats in the early 1990s.Also mostly they had Michelin steer tires.One day while riding in his jet the man that owned the company(aWW2 vet)got a call on the phone.They said the price on his steer tires went up on his order.He called whoever his tire dealer was in Des Moines Iowa and cancelled an order for a Million dollars worth of tires.Then called Bridgestone and ordered the same number of steer tires.A couple years later we were back to Michelin.I dont remember how much less they cost him exactly,but it was 100 dollars less a tire than any I could ever buy.Unless you are somebody like that,a tire company is not going to do a lot for you.You already gave them 100 dollars at least more than a big company to start with.The guarantee never will work for you because if you dont have the right amount of air or balance them and rotate them the warranty is no good and we had records and they would weasel out of it once in a while.However the guy that buys a Million dollars worth of tires gets a good deal when he first buys them.Any way I saw my boss argue with tire dealers enough to know that they can get out of that guarantee if they want to,even on a guy that buys a million dollars worth of tires from them every order.

The year was about 1967 and my father found a good used Ford 601 tractor to use on the farm instead of "Bob", our old mule. Now my grandfather had had this mule since the mid 40's and he was getting some age on him. S
