    Dinghy Tire Question

    This is a tire question specific to dinghys so I'm posting it here. I'm about to need new tires on the Jeep Liberty Toad. I had some tough, AT, LRCs on it and they've worm pretty good now at about 35,000 miles. But, they've always been loud when driving the jeep. What's your experience with...

    Question on tire mounting

    We had our first flat last Sunday on one of our 6 year old Ridgeway Sport tires. It wasn't a blowout fortunately so no shredding nor damage to the trailer. DW heard a hissing on her side just before I started feeling the steering shimmy a little. We were on I-40 about 15 miles from home...

    Storage bay behind right front tire

    I was driving home yesterday through an incredible downpour. There was 1 to 2 inchs of rain on the highway. When I got home and opened the door to the right front storage bay, it was full of water. So I guess these aren't sealed. I know about the rear storage bin as I have sealed that up. I...

    Newbie: 2022 Wildwood FSX 270RTKX Tire Upgradeable?

    I'm new to RVing, I'm looking into getting a 2022 WILDWOOD FSX 270RTKX. I've read that the stock tires it comes with are not good and are prone to blow outs... not sure if that's true, but if that's the case are these easily able to upgrade to 15in/16in? I saw a video on youtube where the guy...

    Tires mis-match.

    After one of the tires on my travel trailer tire had a deadly flat, I ended up with 3 radial tires and one regular. Does that cause a safety problem? Thanks

    Spare tire carrier

    Does anyone know of a spare tire carrier that is strong enough to hold a spare off of a Chevy 4500 chassis that would bolt around the bumper on a class c or is the hollow bumper even strong enough to hold a spare

    Yet another tire rant

    Folks, I just wanted to air some dirty laundry. I have a 2020 192RBS, purchased almost exactly two years ago. On the way home from a weekend trip, I had a catastrophic blowout on the highway. First and foremost, why did Forest River put such cheap tires on my trailer? These tires had less than...

    Bad week for tires

    Took the TT to New Bern, NC for 3 days so we could watch a friend's daughter play in a softball tournament. While at the campground the friend's son got into some mud up to his knees. No problem just had him use the outdoor shower to clean off. Apparently I didn't get the cover locked right and...

    Tire Blowout Repair

    I had the dreaded tire blowout this summer, fortunately the only damage was to destroy the fender skirt and puncturing the fabric in the wheel well. Replacing the fender skirt is no problem, just wait for new part and reattaching it. My question is how to repair the fabric in the wheel well. The...

    noise when tires in rotation

    2018 Sunseeker 2290 here with 46k miles. Second season using it. Put new rubber on all 6 wheels last summer. Have had noise coming from driver's side (can't be sure if it's front or rear) when tires are in rotation. Does not make noise when stopped. Just had all tires rotated and balanced...

    Tow vehicle tires

    When parking in between excursions, is it ok to leave the truck and camper hitched for a week or two? Should the tongue leg be put down to relieve the weight on the tow vehicle or doesn’t it matter?

    Isata 5 35DB tire pressure / Rear Camera / and storage

    I know I know, there are ten thousand tire pressure threads on here but i want to ask anyway. I'm curious what you 36DS or 35DB owners are running pressure-wise? I'm literally one pound under max weight when we travel, so I keep the front at 105 and the rear at 95. Any thoughts on whether...

    Loves tire service.

    Recently, travelling in Virginia, we had a rear tire go flat. Luckily we were close to a rest stop so I pulled in and started the replacement process. We have AAA so I called them. 4 hours later a wrecker truck pulled up, no where big enough for my Class A Georgetown and did not have a jack to...

    Tires

    I am planning on putting on better tires this next spring and would like some recommendations on what is best. I know the tires that come on the new campers are very poor. We only have a few hundred miles to pull this year and I always keep my tires covered so I should be good through this year...

    Good morning … ☕️ I was greasing the wheel on my 2020 19FBS Geo Pro camper, bumped my spare tire, and discovered it was loose. I used the crank to tighten it only to discover it was tight??? So why is the spare tire loose?? I then crawled under the tire, lifted it up, and spun the clamp on...

    Retirement

    Well the day has arrived. Got up and started the coffee. I no longer have a security badge to enter the office and no laptop to drag back and forth between office and home. Look out fish and a camping we go! After the honey do list is complete of course. I think I am still in shock of not...

    Tire wear 3,000 miles

    I have a 2019 Flagstaff 26FKBS. It has 2 Torx Dexter Axles. After 3,000 miles the rear passenger tire outside tread wore down to the danger point. I put on the unused spare and within another 3,000 miles it blew out. Same axle, same place. Forest River said it will not fall under warranty even...

    Taller Spare Tire Carrier

    Before I go to fabricating on the original bumper mount spare tire carrying on my 273QBXL does anyone have any info on a mount that sits the spare tire higher up? I have a cargo tray and the spare tire is sitting right on it.

    Tire Failure

    I have read countless posts about failed tires. Had one explode on me Memorial Day weekend. The typical Castle Rock failure. Fortunately the damage was minimal. But the explosion was pretty loud. Pretty sure the damage was "self inflicted" over a period of time. Where we used to park the...
