New Maxxis tires are 2 years old???
Hello, I enjoy reading topics on this forum and have learned a lot from you guys. This is my first post. With all the controversy of ST tires vs. LT tires, I decided to buy what many think are the be...

I and many others have NEVER run into such a situation... Though I am sure it has happened. Many tire shop workers are not the brightest tools in the shed. ( heck most of the time, they cannot even get all my tires inflated to the same psi.) So anything is possible.
But what you describe is not a normal situation.. You are just using it as a poor argument to support your views
So I am calling BS on this,
I suspect the bigger and real issue is that many tire shops want to sell what they have in stock and not order tires. It has nothing to do with ST or LT tires. Les Schwab, a major west coast tire retailer, will mount LT tires on a rim for a travel trailer but will try first to sell what they have in stock. That perhaps is part of Jeremy's issue. Nobody wants to lose a sale so I am sure that if the big retailers will mount an LT tire on a travel trailer rim, so will the smaller tire retailers. Discount Tire will also try to sell what they have but I have found they will order what you want if you insist. Many run LT tires on travel trailers and have no issues. Why would a tire shop care since LT tires are not less safe?
