Recommended replacement tires
- Michelin X-Line Energy Z (Steer): A premium, fuel-efficient steer tire with a long service life. ($-$$$)
- Bridgestone R284 Ecopia (Steer): Known for its low rolling resistance and exceptional wear life in highway applications. ($-$$$)
- Goodyear Fuel Max LHD 2 (Drive): A popular choice for drive axles, balancing fuel economy with traction. ($$)
When to inflate to max load psi
As a heavy-duty Class 8 truck, the 2025 Volvo VNL's tires should be inflated based on the axle load, not necessarily the maximum pressure stamped on the tire sidewall. Always consult the tire manufacturer's load and inflation tables and your fleet's specific guidelines. Inflate to the pressure that corresponds to the measured axle weight to ensure proper tire wear, fuel economy, and safety. Max pressure is typically reserved for the maximum legal axle load (e.g., 12,000 lbs front, 34,000 lbs tandem rear).
Lug nut torque & pattern
- Torque Spec: 450–500 ft-lbs
- Pattern: For a 10-lug hub-piloted wheel, tighten the nuts in a star or crisscross pattern to ensure the wheel is seated evenly against the hub.
Common tire issues for this vehicle
- River Wear/Irregular Wear on Steer Tires: Often caused by misalignment or improper inflation. Regular alignments and consistent pressure checks are critical.
- Mismatched Duals: Ensuring both tires in a dual pair are the same diameter (within 1/4 inch) and pressure is vital to prevent one tire from being overloaded, leading to premature failure.
