What tires do you suggest?

I am getting ready to take a 3 to 4 month road trip in my Pleasureway Traverse. I will need new tires so just wondering which tires everyone is using on their van these days. Thanks.

  • I had Michelin LTs on our Sprinter based RV. But when the time came to replace them, our tire dealer (whom I trust) steered me towards Firestone Transforce HTs. I have to say I've loved them thus far, and they were less expensive than the Michelins.
  • I have Toyo tires on our PW, but Michelin tires are fine too, just get the tires with the stiff sidewalls for better handling.
  • I have used TOYO tires for years with good success.
  • Ask just about anyone who owns a PleasureWay and they'll tell you about the grief they suffered with the Hancrook tires. The absolutely worse thing is that The Hancrook reps will treat you like dirt when you have a warranty issue. How do I know? Been there and done that. I strongly recommend that you avoid Hancrook tires and the crooks that run the company.
  • Michelin LT (light truck) tires. I had very bad luck with the OEM Hankooks.
  • michlin or hancook. seems there about as good as you can get ,theres some type of good rebate if your a FMCA member, but I don,t know how it works.
