I think they're worth it and use them, whenever still for awhile.
Amazon has a nice selection to order by measuring the diameter of your tire. - LwiddisExplorer IIMore than two nights in a CG and my TT tire covers are on.
- ncrowleyExplorer IIYes, tire covers are a good idea. Use them whenever you are not in motion.
- Dick_BExplorerDon't remember where I read it but the tire covers don't protect against UV sun damage BUT it tends to keep the sunshine off the tires which keeps them cooler.
- PastorCharlieExplorerSpray tires with 303 and cover them..
- jfskeetExplorerYes, unbelievable the difference covered vs uncovered.

The purpose for the covers is to protect the tires against the sun and it's UV damage. If covered, there can't be any UV damage. - hipowerExplorerThose who like them and use them swear by them. Those who don't like them and don't use them swear at them.
My experience over 45 years of RV ownership along with many other utility and cargo type trailers and using 7-10 years as an average lifespan for tires based on age and overall condition I have used them on one coach and found no difference in tire life or cracking. I've never made any special effort to protect or treat the tires and never had any failures that could be attributed to doing so.
If you like and believe in them use them, if not don't. - Wandering_StormExplorerThanks to all. My new tire covers arrived today. McD
