t fit a 4-axle commercial vehicle with a set of Michelin's beless Giant X tyres and you can hit up another 31 cwt yload capacity. That's another 31 cwt you can carry. d that's money. And that talks.
aeone said the other day that Michelin's Tubeless Giant X, which ow immediately available in size 10-22.5 X, is the best thing that's pened to commercial vehicles since the introduction of the X itself. true.

heeler— 7 x 28 lb = cwt
'heeler— ii x8 lb----2t cwt
heeler — 13 x 28 lb = 3, cwt ply those savings to every vehicle in your fleet and you surely must a significant extra payload capacity. And extra payload surely is down to one thing. Money. Extra money.
