Goodyear Tires

I just picked up a my new coach the other day and it came with Goodyear G670RV 275-75 R22.5 tires. Does anyone have these tires and if so, how do they hold up? My previous coach had Michelin tires and after 5 years, there was not a crack any where on the side wall (I did keep them covered and used 303 Aerospace on them) and the there was plenty of tread wear left.
Thanks for your help.
  • Here we go again. The GY 670's are the worst RV tire ever made. They have funny wear patterns ( rivering) and GY provides no warranty. Throw them away.

  • I run the same only the 295 size. Goodyear puts something in their rubber compound that has UV protection and it seems to work for me. My tires are 8 years old and have no cracks or problems. I replaced the front 2 (steer tires) this summer because I felt I should, but the Goodyear dealer, upon inspection, said that he felt it was not necessary. Have them all inspected for cracking, sun damage and tread wear at least once a year and never drive with them under inflated.

    Goodyear - Michelin is like a Ford - Chevy thing here, and your favorite Korean or Chinese tire will be your Toyota !! jmho
  • I ran goodyear truck tires (I think G169 but not sure) for 9 years. I replaced them because DW was concerned about their age. They had no cracking of any kind on the outside, and the truck place where I purchased the firestone truck tires we're running now said the carcasses were in perfect condition, and that they would be recapped and resold to truckers. One of their guys suggested that RV tires are "special" to hold up to being parked for most of their useful life while truck tires are built to stand up to heavy use day after day.
