I am thinking of buying a 1999 bounder but the one I’m looking at has dual axles. What is the reason for the dual axles and how many tires will I need. I assume there would be 10 tires am I right 8 in back 2 in front.also this rv needs new tires what will this cost and where can you buy these. The rv is only 12 m so I don’t mind putting a little money into it if the rest is nice. I am not sure I need a 36 s it is just the wife and I. Also I need to check to see it it has the ford or Chevy 454 engine which one is better. Looking forward to trying this raving deal just retired and looking for a new adventure jimbo

The extra axle is called a Tag, with only 2 tires. I guess the chassis builder needed the extra tag axle for the weight.
I have a 36 ft. 94 Bounder on an OshKosh chassis with a rear diesel that only has a single rear axle.
The cost of 6 tires will vary and would be available at any good tire shop but expect to pay a minimum of $2000
Good Luck
