Tire covers?
Firstly do tire covers help, not much or a lot? What should I look for when buying tire covers? Any recommendations on which ones to buy or stay away from? Thanks, Phil

Scadaman,
This is a paraphrase of the answer that I got from Roger Marble some years back while at an FMCA convention.
Tire covers can help, but it is not the UV that is the issue, it is the heat. So, have white tire covers and be sure that they are on the sunny side of the RV. New compounds are not very UV sensitive, but heat is the enemy of tires and the sun is real good at providing heat.
