To me tires and brakes are the 2 most important safety components of an RV, or any vehicle. Maybe I'm OCD about tires. When at a stop light I actually look at the tires on a vehicle next to me and often tell my wife, "Look at that idiot..He's got kids in that car and the tires are bald."
I look at it this way...Spend the money and replace QUESTIONABLE tires. It makes any rode trip more relaxing if you don't have that "old tire" in the back of your mind the whole time.
Another way to look at it is this: If you spend the money now to replace those QUESTIONALBE tires you might live long enough to enjoy them. If you don't replace them, this may be your last trip in the RV when you have a catostrophic crash that takes you, the DW and anyone else on the highway with you out. Then your family that is left behind can spend the money saved on replacing those QUESTIONALBE tires on a few funerals.
Just sayin........
