We need to replace six 8 year old Michelin XZA3 275/80R 22.5 H. Even with the FMCA discount these are about $1400 more than Toyo M177 295/75R 22.5 H. Our question is: are the Toyo 295/75R 22.5H exactly the same tire size as the Michelin 275/80R 22.5H. We have been assured by tire dealers that the Michelin and Toyo are identical sizes. We are particularly concerned about the spacing between rear duals. We will be going to Freightliner in Gaffney, SC in mid May for service and can arrange to have them changed while we are there. After that we will be leaving on a coast to coast tour and want to be positive we have replaced with the correct size tire.
