    New Tires

    I have a 2013 Georgetown XL 378 with 25k miles on it. I bought it from the original owner this past Feb. 2020. It had 24k miles on it when I got it. I believe I have the original tires, Michelin 235 80R 22.5. I think that before we drive it cross country next year I will put new rubber on it...

    Rotate tires or not?

    Parked for the next 6-7 months out of town on a job site. Should I move/rotate the tires to prevent flat spots every so often or will it be okay for that period of time. Which means loosely pack up and move a foot or two. Thanks

    Balancing Goodyear Endurance Tires

    After reading all of the good comments and reviews for Goodyear Endurance tires, I bit the bullet today and had a set of GYE ST225/75R15's installed on my 2018 Rockwood 2618VS Windjammer. This trailer is always stored inside and the original 3 year old 225/75R15 Castle Rocks only had maybe...

    Beware of Trailer Express tires

    My Forest River Rockwood 5th wheel came with Trailer Express Tires. After about 3k miles they were losing a little air every month or two. I didnt think much about it but then had two blow outs inside of a month. One had a side bubble and the other lost some of its tread. I replaced the...

    Can I upgrade tires to load range E with my rims?

    I've owned many, many campers over the past 45 years, but need some guidance on whether or not I can upgrade my tires from load range D to E, given my current rims. I have a 2021 Solaire 260FKBS travel trailer that cane with ST225/75R15/D Castle Rock tires. The sticker on the camper says...

    Both tires on rear axle rubbing wheel well

    Upon arriving at the site I find that the x-chocks, especially on the driver's side, won't fit between the tires. As I start looking at the whole setup I find that ALL four tires are rubbing/have rubbed a hole through the plastic wheel well. The rear tires essentially have no clearance. I can...

    Tires

    We just bought a 04 41QS, looking to but new tread on and was wondering if anyone has put 315’s on the front. Also the standard question about make. I’ve run Mich. on my other and had good luck but see a lot out there with TOYO’s. Any opinions would be appreciated. ***22...

    Tire pressures for 2006 17B

    What tire pressure is appropriate for a 17B trailer? I was hoping to find the specs in the owners manual, but either I'm looking in the wrong place or it's not there.

    Insight on Purchasing New Tires

    My family and I just purchased a 2018 Grey Wolf 26 DBH. The tires are 205/75 14 R and are only 4 ply. I want to put new ones on, as we are getting ready to do some long distance traveling. When I spoke to Discount Tire, they said that the Goodyear Endurance would be the best replacement, and...

    Now that Goodyear has messed up, what tires?

    I WAS....going to get 4 Endurances to replace the CR bombs that came on our 2511. Maxxis dealers are no where close. I am trying to find LT tires in 205/75/14 or trailer tires NOT made in China. I have Enduraces on my boat...but since they seriously screwed up with the PC mess....I rather...

    Are Endurance Tires Still USA Made ??

    I am looking to replace my Westlake tires with 14,000 miles. No problems yet, but I failed to rotate and the back tires are wearing a bit, I think just from slip and slide. I am looking at the Goodyear Endurance for replacement, but my tire guy (non Goodyear dealer) thinks that the tires are...

    Neutral Carlyle Tires

    Anyone have experience with Carlyle tires? Are they any good? I've been completely happy with the Westlake tires that came with the trailer...no issues. Picked up a screw in the sidewall on one now and they're 7 years old so time to change all 4 I guess.

    My tires are not the correct rating?

    We recently purchased a new, 2019, Forest River Vibe 268RKS. The stickers indicate that the dry weight is 6856 pounds and GVW is 9650 pounds. The tires are ST225/75R15 Load Range D Rainier STs. The Max Load on the tire sidewall indicates that for tandem axle use, they are rated for 2200...

    Tires with G rated sidewall

    I have a 2019 Cardinal Luxury 3350 RLX, it has Rainer (China Bombs) 235/80 R16 G Sidewall, I have looked at Goodyear & Maxxis and according to the sales people they do not make a G sidewall. I want to replace current tires, but do not want to sacrifice going to an E sidewall. Anyone have a...

    Did a search and found lots of posts on trailer tires, but I was wondering if anyone had any experience with Goodyear Endurance lhs tires on a motorhome?

    G rated tires for heavy 5th wheel

    I have searched and read many threads on tires but one thing I have noticed is it is still hard to get an opinion on G rated tires. I am looking for size 235/80R16. I cannot go to 235/85R16 as I only have 2.75" between my two axles. My wheels are rated for a max PSI of 110, and a max weight...

    Rotate tires?

    I see conflicting info on the need to rotate tires on a class a. Is anyone rotating their FR3 tires and if so when? Some info checks to see the tire wear, if uneven, they say to rotate and address the cause. If the tires are wearing evenly they say no need to rotate. What’s everyone doing...

    Towing with low profile tires

    Just leased a new Ram 1500 Laramie, it has the 22” wheels and they are a little more low profile than I would have preferred for towing the travel trailer. Anyone else towing with a similar type of tire? Any concerns? Our trailer is only around 5,000 pounds when loaded if that makes a difference.
