    hey guys i need to get some drive & steer tires soon. I was looking at the hankook d12 for the drives and a pair of hankooks for the steers. Do they hold up well? What model do you recommend? I don't carry over 11k on the steers. Just would like for my steer tires to match up with the drives

    What kind of driving do you do? My recommendations would be totally different from someone that does long haul.

    I tried the steer tires about five years ago. Seemed like a soft compound only got about 70k miles out of them.
    Went back to bfg 244.

    Hankook are good tires, if you can get past the name. I tried them all and got the most mileage out of Bridgestones.

    How would they wear? Other than getting little life out of them?

    They wore fine. Just faster than I thought they should.
