Eastern states with no sales tax on tires.

The tires on my DP are about 4 years old and will need to be replaced in the next year or two. It's sitting in the NW right now and I could replace them now as we don't pay sales tax in WA or OR, but that seems to be a waste of tire money.

We're about to head towards the east coast for probably a 2 to 3 year swing. We'll park the MH at various places and fly home for a couple months at a time (and to go moose hunting). While we're on that trip are there any eastern states where I should look at buying new tires that don't charge sales tax on them?

Nodwell RN110 out moose hunting. 4-53 Detroit, Clark 5 spd, 40" wide tracks, 10:00x20 tires, 16,000# capacity, 22,000# weight. You know the mud is getting deep when it's coming in the doors.

I did that two years ago heading to MI from IL. Huge tire warehouse and have at least a dozen lifts. In my case, $550 for 4 truck tires compared to $850 from local tire shops. Can't hurt to ask.


I did not see any DP size tires listed there/no 22.5 tires.


I contacted the Tire Rack and they don't offer 22.5" tires for MHs.

Unless you have some specific issue with your tires, you have 2-3 years before they need replacement. Maybe you will already be back in the NW by then. If you are looking to save money, you will save a lot more by not replacing them before they need replacing.
What I post is my 2 cents and nothing more. Please don't read anything into my post that's not there. If you disagree, that's OK.
Can't we all just get along?

Don't fly home to go moose hunting if you are in the NE. Northern Maine and Northern New Hampshire have some of the best moose hunting available. Heck, in some places you have to pay someone to go in front of your vehicle and shoot the moose off the road in order to get to the beer store!!!

Oh yeah, no sales tax in NH.

Thanks for the info, it gives me some choices. And, Washington doesn't charge Alaskan residents any sales tax which is why I wouldn't have to pay sales tax there either.

If you buy them on the internet (except for Amazon) there will be no state tax no matter what state. Some online tire dealers have local installers that they will ship the tires to directly. You know ahead of time how much the installer will charge for the installation and the tires should be void of all state taxes except if you are in Ohio or Indiana as that is where a few online tire dealers are located
