Which is why I want a decent quality tire. I have had 5 blowouts in a motorhome - ALL Michilen XRVs, all less than 5 years old. Every company can produce lemons.

X2 on Double Coin Chinese tires mine have been great and I will replace with Double Coin.
$1200 out the door with nitrogen at no charge.

Having said that, I don't drive but a few thousand miles per year and high $$$$ tires that dry rot before even showing thread wear is not an option for me.

I do not know if Double Coin tires are available in your area. They are a premium tire used by many truckers out here. I have been running them for many years.
Depending on size they are a lot less then Michelins, coopers, Goodyear. I just replaced the rear four for about $1200.

Those are Diamond Back tires - they make tires for classic cars just like Coker does. This is Diamondback - www.diamondback-tire.com - I am sure from China, but $2200 for 6 out the door. I am not going to buy them unless I know that someone else has had good service from them. However, I am not spending $6000 on michelins, either.

Diamondback tires
Not sure if there is another company using the same name.

Never heard of them but I did find out they are made in China. Is that bad? Don't know but China doesn't have a reputation for producing high quality products.

There are two major safety systems on any vehicle; brakes and tires.

If I'm looking to save a few bucks, I don't look there.

My 2 cents. Worth what it cost.
