Best national tire chain to buy 6 new tires?

Pep Boys can get 16.5 tires

Funny you should mention that. It was around 2001, I'd just bought a Class C on a 1983 Ford E350. Blew a tire on the way to work. Plan was to head out on a weekend trip after. Called around, and decided on Pep Boys tires, over Tire Kingdom. Part of it was PB was national and TK was regional. Tires I got, were Futura Scrambler, 8.75R16.5

Never had a minute's tire trouble with those. I bought seven, and rotated the spare against the fronts. Never moved the rears. We didn't drive all that far, but FL summer does a good job heating the road surface to scorching...

We still need to know what tire size our OP is running. If it's actually 16.5's and the spec is 8.00's, we need to be sure the 8.75's can mount with enough "OFFSET" at the rears. The 875 size is about the most common 16.5 available now, such as Firestone Transforce.

Cheryl, "Offset" shows up as the space between the inner rear sidewalls, but that's not how it's measured. Topic we may not have to get into, we can handle it if needed.

The door jamb label I'm thinking of, shouldn't be "paper." There are probably two. One from Chevy that came with the chassis, then one from Rockwood. The "RV" one might be less durable than Chevy's. Both should have tire information.

Still hoping it has 16", meaning 16.0" wheels...
