    Super single at 400k

    Same here we had 360,000 miles on our wide base single on the drive axle and started seeing a little odd wear. We had the tire rotated on the wheel, the tire store broke the bead and caused a bubble on the side wall. We were also very sad to have that happen to our tires as we really wanted...
