tires and ride

[Goldencrazy]

I have noticed that wheels are getting bigger on new cars with 20 inch not uncommon. I did some research and the general consensus is the larger wheels actually impact ride to the negative however the new thinner tires help to make up for it. That has lead me to the question about tires. Are there certain brands of RV tires that have a better ride? I have 19.5 on a 2012 Winnebago Vista 30T is that is important. I run at 80 lbs per weight-could run lower on the front.

I have 20" vs. stock 18" on my Toad and do have a little rougher ride, but I like the looks so each to his own!

Thinner tires sure don't improve the ride any. Wider sidewalls soak up some of the impact whereas thinner tires have to have stiffer sidewalls to do the same work.

Are you saying you don't like the ride of your tires? Lots of brands to choose from out there. As long as the tire is inflated properly and can carry the weight, you should be fine. Your manufacturer spec out your MH to ride on 19" tires, factoring in the weight/carrying capacity of the MH. Suspension is another factor in ride quality.:h
