Lanier,

I doubt it. When I looked for tires six months ago, Firestone only had the
"Steeltex" tire in that size - I think they were $ 86.00 at www.tirerack.com
. Nice looking tire, but no steel sidewall.

They sure are. Got the brakes bled and tried to start it, low battery,
checked and no output from alternator.
I am over joyed at the amount of therapy this GMC is affording me in this
first week of ownership.
