Do you have any other suggestions before I purchase the Michelins or any other info in general about van camping or specifically to the Coach House and Dodge. Thanks. Jerry.
I had a 2000 Coachhouse 192 KS and put Michelin Michelin LTX MS2 tires on it. The handling immediately went south.
I tried an alignment, new shocks, rear wheel spacers - and nothing helped.
Then I replaced the Michelins with Bridgestone V Steels, and the handling issue resolved itself.
The Michelins LTX MS2 are great tires, but under the weight of a heavy class b van, the sidewalls and tread flex result in squirrelly handling.
They handle okay under 55, but at speed the road wander is hard to keep up with.
Get tires with stiffer sidewalls. The Bridgestone V Steels worked for me.
