    Towstar STR Tires?

    First thing I'm doing to my 2017 5.0 that I just brought home is to replace the tires. I've got a Les Schwab a few blocks from my house and I absolutely love the service they've given me over the years and I want to stick with them...but the tires they are recommending is their "house brand"...

    New Trailer, Now for new Tires

    Time to consider New Tires for my 2015 Tundra Tow Vehicle. It's my understanding that the Stock Tires which are Bridgestone P275/65 R 18 are passenger vehicle rated tires, even though it also says Duelers HT 684 II M&S. So my question is should I purchase a tire, with a LT rating for towing ...

    How bad are the stock tires?

    I've seen several comments on the general forum about the tires FR uses and needing to replace them. Has anyone had any issues with the stock tires? Is it something to be concerned about on a new TT?

    I'm about to put 6 new tires on my coach. Dealer/techs are asking me whether I want normal wheel weights or balance beads in the tires. Anyone have enough experience with balance beads to offer advice? I've heard of them, but never used them myself. Are they better than wheel weights for a...

    Just picked up 5 new Carlisle tires at Walmart. I bought them online and when I picked them up I was surprised that they would not mount them on a trailer. I would have to remove my tires one at a time at my storage lot and take them over to Wally World. I'm not making four different trips...

    TPMS-TST 5-6 degree difference on tires

    I finally got to take my new 2021 Geo Pro 20 bhs out on a shakedown trip. Coming home I noticed a 5-6 degree difference between the tires. It was after dark on the way home so I know it wasn't caused by one side being in the sun. I pulled over for 10 mins and the temp leveled out. Is that normal...

    I have a 2016 Primetime Avenger 28DBS. The stock tires (Rainiers)are at least 5 years old and although there is plenty of tread left I feel I should replace them before my trip to Yellowstone this summer (I’m in NY). A few years ago 1 of the tires had to be replaced. It’s a different brand...

    Tires & propane mods...advice?

    My trailer came with the dreaded chinese bomb Castle Rock tires in a 225/75r15 flavor. I plan to ditch those the minute I bring the trailer home. I know lots of folks recommend The GY Endurance tires. I am not entirely opposed to that, but I was also hoping to give it a more rugged look with...
