push back trying to get Michelin XPS RIB installed

I agree with JIMNLIN, many dealers simply will not put a tire that has a sidewall rating less than the factory placard, even though the tires will have more than enough capacity to handle the entire GVW of the trailer. There are only 2 solutions; 1) find another dealer, 2) dismount the wheels and take them to the dealer and have the new tires mounted and balanced, 2a) buy tires online and refer to #2.

FWIW, the Bridgestone Duravis R250s are virtually identical to the XP Ribs and cheaper.
