How Much Do Semi Truck Tires Cost? Prices by Size and Axle

In the Liberty Truck Tires examples below, new semi truck tires cost $235 to $575 each. That includes trailer, drive and steer tires in common sizes. Your price depends on the exact model, size and load rating. The tire price is only part of your budget: confirm installation, taxes and any service charges before you order.

A single replacement may cost a few hundred dollars. A full tractor and trailer tire purchase can run into several thousand. To plan the job, start with the tires you need for each axle, then ask for a written total.

This guide uses real product listings to explain semi truck tire prices, compare purchase options and build a practical replacement budget.

Semi truck tire prices at a glance

Here are selected prices from our product pages, checked on October 5, 2026. They are examples from our inventory, not a national average or a complete price range.

Prices and availability can change. Treat these figures as product-price examples. Ask which taxes, fees and services are included in your final quote. Products shown are not automatically suitable for every truck with the same wheel diameter.

How much do steer, drive and trailer tires cost?

Steer tire prices

The two 295/75R22.5 steer tires in our table are listed at $300 and $575 each. That puts a pair at $600 or $1,150 before any additional charges.

This is not a like-for-like performance test. The Double Coin RT606+ is listed for regional work, while the Michelin X Line Energy Z+ is aimed at long-haul use. Compare the exact application and specifications as well as the price.

Drive tire prices

The Tomoro TMD11 is listed at $260 in 295/75R22.5 and $270 in 11R22.5. At those prices, eight tires would cost $2,080 or $2,160.

For a tractor using dual tires on two drive axles, the quantity makes even a small unit-price difference matter. Check that your quote names the size, model and load rating for all eight tires.

Trailer tire prices

The 295/75R22.5 trailer examples above cost $235 and $270 each. Eight would total $1,880 or $2,160 before additional charges.

Use the trailer’s approved fitment and operating needs to narrow the choice. A lower price only helps if the tire is right for the equipment and the work.

How much does a full set of semi truck tires cost?

A “full set” needs a clear definition. A tractor and trailer can have different axle layouts and tire counts. The example below assumes two steer tires, eight drive tires and eight trailer tires: 18 tires in total.

PositionQuantityExample price eachSubtotal
Steer2$300$600
Drive8$260$2,080
Trailer8$235$1,880
Total18Product prices only$4,560

The tractor-only subtotal is $2,680 for ten tires. Using the $575 steer-tire example instead raises that subtotal to $3,230 and the 18-tire total to $5,110.

These calculations illustrate purchase costs. They are not a fitment recommendation, an installed quote or a reason to replace every tire at once. The condition of your tires and the equipment’s requirements determine the actual job.

What changes the price of a semi truck tire?

Size and load rating

Always compare the full tire specification. Two tires with 22.5-inch wheel sizes may have different dimensions and load ratings. The Tomoro examples show that even two sizes of the same model have different prices.

Send the supplier a clear photo of the sidewall if you are unsure what you need. Confirm the approved size and load requirements before comparing alternatives.

Brand and intended use

Price alone does not tell you which tire offers better value. Ask what each model is designed to do and how it matches your routes. A regional delivery truck and a long-haul tractor may have different needs.

Review warranty terms, product support and any available performance data. Do not assume a more expensive tire will repay its higher price on every vehicle.

Quantity and service arrangements

Buying one tire during a breakdown is a different job from ordering a planned fleet replacement. The quantity, delivery location and installation plan all belong in the quote.

If you manage several vehicles, request a wholesale tire quote. Ask for the final per-tire price and any delivery or service charges. Do not build a budget around an assumed discount.

What does tire installation add to the bill?

Ask for an installed total before booking. A product listing does not establish the complete cost of the work, and a mobile visit may have separate charges.

Have the supplier confirm whether the quote includes:

  • Removing the old tires and mounting the replacements.
  • Balancing, when included or recommended for the job.
  • Valve hardware and any required wheel work.
  • Old tire disposal.
  • Delivery, mobile dispatch, travel or after-hours service.
  • Applicable taxes and other fees.

Keep these items separate from the tire subtotal when comparing quotes. A lower advertised price may not produce the lower installed total.

For work at your location, ask about mobile tire installation. Share your location, tire size, quantity and vehicle condition so the team can confirm availability and quote the job.

How to compare tire value by cost per mile

The purchase price is useful for today’s budget. Cost per mile helps you assess what happened over the tire’s working life.

For a basic comparison, divide the purchase price by the miles achieved before removal. For example, a $300 tire lasting 100,000 miles costs $0.003 per mile, or 0.30 cents. A $450 tire lasting 180,000 miles costs $0.0025 per mile, or 0.25 cents.

Those mileages are hypothetical, not promises for any product. They show why a cheaper tire does not always cost less over time. For a fuller comparison, include installation and other tire-related costs, then account for any casing credit.

Use your own records from similar vehicles and routes. Record the model, fitted position, purchase price, starting mileage, removal mileage and reason for removal. That gives your next buying decision a firmer basis than price alone.

How to get an accurate tire replacement quote

Gather these details before you call:

  1. The full tire size and required load rating.
  2. The axle position and number of tires needed.
  3. Your preferred model or budget.
  4. The truck’s usual routes and type of work.
  5. Whether you need tires only, installation or mobile service.
  6. Your location and preferred service time.

Ask the supplier to list any proposed alternatives by model and size. This makes it easier to check that every quote covers the same job.

Before approving the order, confirm how long the quote remains valid and whether the tires are available for your planned date. If a listed model is unavailable, ask for the replacement option and revised total in writing. Keep that quote with your invoice so you can track what you bought and compare the next order on the same basis.
