thanks!

Please note that the factory set appears to be ST tires (Special Trailer), while many posters here are suggesting LT (Light Truck).

LT's are not a -bad- choice, but consider if LT are so much "better" then ST's, why do most (all?) factories prefer to supply ST tires.

The answer is ST tires have stronger side-walls then LT tires, thus they can handle the high side-wall pressure that happens when you are jack-knifing the rig. Since every time I have to park at home, I have to jack-knife, I prefer ST tires

RV builders use ST's because they are CHEAP. That sidewall argument is BOGUS. You can have the strongest sidewall in the industry. But if the carcus cannot hold a tread from separating what good is it. All ST's are made in China. None of them can hold the tread on. All chinese built tires are junk.
