A good friend has a 2008 Fleetwood Expedition. In July he was returning home from an extended trip he stopped in St George Utah for lunch. Upon returning to the coach he noted a large bump on the inside of left front tire, Goodyears. Of course he had all tires replaced before proceeding from St George. Although only six years old, the one tire was ready to blow, and he was extremely lucky to see the bubble before starting across the hot desert for home in So. Calif. Some are not so lucky.
I replace my tires at six years of age, regardless of their appearance. A blowout on front or rear could cause major damage to coach or worse. One or two more years on a set of tires is just not worth the risk. You just cannot place a price on safety!
You've got four tires on the rear. What could a blow out cause? Major damage? Really?
