Looking at replacements, (6 tires) Michelin @ $6+K and Yokohama @ $4+k. Not sure which is best. Anyone have experience with Yokohama tires on their RV? Don't want to cheep out if Yokohama is not a good tire. Would appreciate some insight. Also, anyone know of other makes as well? Thanks.
The manufacturers mentioned in the prior posts are respected. Bridgestone is another good possibility. Everybody doesn't make the 295/80R22.5 so just do research.
The price you mention on the Michelin is very high. If you are an FMCA member check prices through their national accounts program with Michelin.
Michelin specifically states that if you have tires that are ten years old they should be taken out of service.
