Need advice on tires.

[Gnome1]

Its time to replace the tires on my class C. This is the 1st time for me to get new tires for my RV.

Any advice as far as brand and/or model?

Any advice will be greatly appreciated.

Pick a name brand, shop around online for the best price, go to a local volume ture shop, show the manager the online deal and ask him to match it, get a price including all taxes and fees. I buy Michelins from Allen or Discount Tire stores. If you don't currently have long custom formed solid metal valve stems, have them installed for easy pressure checks and adjustment of pressures. Screw-on valve extension devices are cheap but not nearly as safe and reliable.

I intend to have the new metal valve stems installed on the duals. Fronts already have them.

I put the wrong Michelin's on my MH and lost all my handling because the tread was too aggressive. Outer tread could be moved back and forth with 2 fingers. Truck driver showed me that. 😞

Make sure you don't make the same mistake I did.

How many miles a year yoou plan to put on them?

Just put a set of Michelin LTX M/S 2's on our 24' C. I put them on my truck a couple of years ago as well and they were/are the best tires I have ever driven. :C

Consider Hankook. I'll buy them again, they're good tires.

Its got kinds of a hodge podge of tire brands. Firestone, Multimile and I'm not sure what the inner duals are.

What's on it now and are you happy with them?
