Do you really go 6-7 years on your Michelin ribs? I've heard by many that tires are 3-4 years max regardless of brand/quality.
I don't have the Ribs but I ran the 1st set of BFG Commercial LT E on my current 11.2k 5th wheel rv trailer for 7 years/55k miles....and 6 years/50k miles on the 2nd same tire size/brand set. Now the trailer has New Firestone Transforce LT E and expect them to run the usual 6-8 years.
No issues with any of those tires.
Many ST load range C/D/E brands have a 3-5 year recommendation....that doesn't refer to the LT or even the P tires used on trailers.
