Happy Memorial Day, everyone!
I hope everyone is out using their rigs. We have some work to do to ours to get it back on the road, starting with tires. Ours are 8-17.5; the fronts are recaps that came with the RV when I bought it and are steering tires. The duals are newer we grabbed from a Winnie Chieftain a guy was sending to the dump (when we got the 2 additional fuel tanks), but don't work as steering tires - it's impossible to drive with them on the front. Monarch for the recap steering tires and Denman for the duals and spares. I bought it in 2006, so even if the tires were brand-new then they're dry-rotted trash now.
So I'm looking for tire suggestions. Same all the way around, different steer tires, what sizes and where did you get them?
