Tire Selection limited by size?
HI, Getting close to putting new tires on my Class C. The original tires are LT 255/75R16 E. The searches I've done turn up very few options, so I was wondering if other sizes might be suitable...
Forum Discussion
Finally got a chance to get out and see what tires are actually on the motorhome. To my surprise, they are 225/75R16.
Actual weights on a scale from the last trip fully loaded and a full tank of fresh water with the toad hooked up:
Front axle: 4460
Rear axle: 9100
Toad: 3120 (2014 Ford Focus with full gas tank)
I'm close, but under the axle limits.
Now I'm wondering if the tire size on the door sticker was a typo from Fleetwood. Next time out I'll check the speedometer vs. the GPS and see if they agree.
