I am sure that there are TTs that need special service tires for tough environments; off road travel, stone and gravel roads or even poorly maintained paved road come to mind.
I would say the average TT is designed by the manufacturer for highway/interstate service from campground to campground. Replacing the standard highway service tire with a rough service tire may not be the best option for normal highway use.
Not everyone needs the “Bigfoot” monster truck to get where they are going with a off road TT to match.
Now that is funny:R
I am constantly amazed at the excuses some make for their tires poor performance..... One actually admitted that he had 2 of the vaunted MAXXIS tires fail.... But it wasn't the tires fault, as he had curbed one, and another had a previous puncture.... These excuses are ludicrous to me. I won't accept such poor performance out of a tire.
And neither should amyone else.... But it is a free country. Some seem to relish in babying their tires and making excuses for them.
Me? I'd rather spend the money upfront for good quality, and then spend my time actually USING the TT without tire failures, or worrying that an accidental curbing or a few MPH over 65 is gonna cause me a headache later on.
