We replaced our eight 7 yr. old Michelins (295/80R/22.5) last May with date codes of 2006-4306. The tire center gave me $50 each for my take-off's and they looked good with 57,000 miles on them, no cracks and good tread. We bought the new Michelins through the FMCA Michelin discount program.
Some friends of mine had Goodyears on their '07 Monaco Signature coach and had a lot of trouble with them rivering. They had a blow-out on the driver's side tag that caused some fender damage. They probably weren't as meticulous as me about tire pressure.
I check my tire pressure before every departure and add air if needed as I have my own compressor. I can go six months without adding. The extreme temp changes is when I'm more likely to notice changes. I keep a 10 lb. cushion above what our weight chart recommends.
