2 tire related questions
Asking for a buddy of mine who owns a '14 toy hauler and tho I asked him the max GVW of the RV, he said it's around 14-15k. He had a blow out w/ his China Bombs last Fri coming home and asked me about tires, so here goes.
1. He has ST 235/80R16. I suggested Sailuns, but he may have to get different rims on account of higher air psi. He sent me a e-mail on 2 tires he saw on the net: Sailuns and Kenda Karrier (Loadstar on sidewall). He doesn't want to go any higher w/ coach (13'2") so can he go w/ a LT tire in different size if not avail in his w/o increasing his height? Or better off w/ Sailuns or even Maxxis? What can he go with and keep his rims?
2. He had as part of his purchase a device installed inside the tires called Tyron which is a run flat protector that attaches to deepest part of rim. I've never heard of this before, so I googled & you tubed it and tho after watching video, I still don't see how it keeps tires from shredding to smitherines and not damage rims. As w/ my buddy, he sent me a photo of his coach after the tire blew and there was very little damage done. Skirting still intact. Who else has heard of this or even has it and your take?
Thanks in advance gang.
