I just picked up a set of R250's to replace the Chinese Will Pops on my new fifth wheel trailer. They were $195 @ Costco with $70 Bridgestone rebate.
I cannot get over how heavy these ribbed tires are. They're 1" thick rubber, and solid steel cores bead to bead. And they're well over 50 lbs. each.
R250's are tires you see on F450 trucks with utility bodies and cranes--service trucks. They're too beefy to use on a common every day 3/4 ton truck.
The guy at Costco says he's seen'em get 100K miles, and they've had absolutely no problems with the tires. I'm sold on them for RV use--especially at the price.
I have had R250 on the trailer for 2 years and just ordered via Costco BS Duravis R500 HD for the pickup. Chris
