Hello. So we purchased a new Shasta Oasis 25rs in January 2016. The tires are 205 75 14 load range c. Constancy tires. (no doubt made in China) We drove it to Seattle and back to Salt Lake City approximately 2000 miles. No other trips. Tires performed well (i.e. they didn't blow up). No overloading. I have choices. (1) Tires ain't broke yet so don't fix (replace) 'em. (2) buy a TPMS system. If I keep tires at a minimum should I replace rubber stems with steel stems and have tires balanced? We are planning a return and back trip again to Northwest in July. Your thoughts please.
YUP X10!
First thing I did on the first RV I bought was to change out all rubber valve stems with stainless steel.
X11, I always replace all rubber valve stems with stainless steel every time I buy new tires. Stainless steel stems will also minimize air leakage with traveling or when in storage.
