If you are in, and tend to travel in, areas where Les Schwab Tires have stores, I'd strongly recommend going there and getting their "house brand" Toyos. We've been in Schwab country for many years and have had fabulous service from them.
When we bought our rig in 2010, its Goodyear tires had a date of 2001 (the chassis build date at Ford). We did a shakedown trip for a few days and the ride was atrocious.
Our local Schwab store (without me asking) did a warehouse inventory check and found me a set of 6 Toyo tires that were only 6 weeks from manufacture. They threw in CRES valve stems and an alignment and I was out of there for less than $2400 (19.5 wheels). The ride quality on the Toyos was like night and day compared to GY. We're very pleased with them.
Our utilisation is such that they'll die of old age long before they wear out (5000 miles in three years), but that's the way with RV's.
No connection with Schwab except about 24 years as a customer.
