Costco Michelin Ribs update
Was able to talk to the local Costco Tire Store manager today to try to get clarification on what the warrantee would be on the Michelin Ribs 235/85 R16 tires for a 5th wheel. No mileage guarantee, No...

Michelins on 05 2500HD 4wd 68,000 miles. Wife's 05 GMC Envoy 77,000 miles. Balanced and rotated on a regular basis. Do I here more echos coming on ?? YIKES
I'm fully aware of the mileage obtained with Michelin M&S Tires as I have a 2003 Ford F250 4WD with somewhwre between 60 to 70,000 miles on them with about half the tread left. Is that the echo you are hearing or are you off your meds again. They are fully warranteed by Costco and Michelin on my truck. Michelin LT Ribs tires on a 5th wheel are not warranteed by the tire seller or the Michelin. In fact the local Discount Tire Store won't even sell them or install if they would be taking off higher weight rated tires.
I have full confidence that the Michelin LT Ribs would be a very good tire on a 5th wheel but am continuing my hunt to find a good tire that a tire store will sell/mount and the manufacturer will warranty on my 5th wheel with 3,042 lb rated rims and 6,000 lb axles/springs but has 3500 lb rated ST tires on it right now. May have to consider 7,000 lb axles and higher rated rims as a extreme option. Which Keystone/Montana should have put on this 5th wheel to begin with.
