super singles. the biggest advantage is weight. a set of supers saves you about 700 pounds over all versus standard steel rims and tires. I move heavy equipment ie,bulldozers ,trackhoes,tanks,,,,things over legal weight for the highways. in some states like Tenn. you have to pay by the mile say .05 cents per ton over limit plus the cost of your permit so lighter is better. however there are some disadvantages ,ice/ snow. there horrible on snow/ice. and if you pop one your sitting on the side of the road,where as sometimes you can limp to a truckstop with conventional tire set ups. hope this helps you.
