Tires and pulling out my hair.

After a lot of Medical problems,finally DW and I feel as though We can get back to traveling in our RV. The tires are getting some age on them and We have been considering replacing them. I have never experienced the frustration I have when talking to dealers about tires. I need six tires,The tires I have now are Goodyear 295/80/22.5. I know they are expensive but if you gotta have 'Em, you gotta have 'em. But, I have tried several places and they all have the same him haw answer, I can only get two of them , or I can only get 4 of them. Is there something going on in the tire business that I am unaware of?

  • Have you searched online? You can get them for a good price and have them delivered to a local shop for install. America's tires matched the Internet price after I called them.
