1. can I use different brand tires? I don't think it make a diffrence..You can use any ST tire of the same size and construction. i.e. radial
2. why is tt doesn't come with jack and wheel lug nut wrench like cars?
Because a jack and lug wrench cost money which the RV manufactuers do not want to pay. Many don't even come with a spare tire. Buy a hydraulic bottle jack large enough for your TT, maybe like a 6 Ton. Harbor Freight has them cheap. Also, pick up a 4 way lug wrench.
3. I tried to talk to dealer and keystone directly requesting new wheel lug nuts (6 of them) and denied, even though the manual say ues 7/8. The service dept. says use 13/16. Why not try both sizes and see which fits? Seems if the dealer is removing and installing lug nuts, they would know what size. Having a 4 way lug wrench covers all your bases.
4. this kind siuation what would u recommends? fixing yourself or emergency road service by insurance co? (found out later i could)
If you don't mind changing a tire, go for it. Me, I'm too old and lazy so I'll let my road service do it for me.
5. Do you check tire wheel lug nuts torque pressure often? (manual says so,, but most cars we don't and i don't want to touch them again
They would like you to check your lug nuts before each trip, and at a certain mileage interval. I have a $20 torque wrench for that purpose. It's probably a wise thing to do, or so they say.
