    New tires unheard-of

    Hi, Just picked up a 2015 Forest River Georgetown 360DSF. Only has 10089 miles but it is 8 YO so dealer replaced tires and batteries. Very happy with the deal I got and unit is like new. Super clean!! Question is, I have never heard of this brand of tires before. They seem to be getting...

    Old Tires

    I recently bought a boat and the trailer tires were pretty beat. Since I learned about date codes on this website, I thought I'd take a look when I swapped them out.

    TireMinder Battery Replacement Program

    I am considering the TireMinder I10 with 10 sensors. I just sent them a second inquiry on their website, since I had not received any feedback from the first. Has anyone purchased in 2023, or know if the "TireMinder Battery Replacement Program" is valid for purchases in 2023?

    Tire Blow Out Protection

    I haven't seen a posting about this product called RV De-Defender. It is a metal shield that is mounted behind the brake assembly and covers the tire with a heavy gauge metal shield. If the tire blows it contains the flying and flapper remains of your tire from tearing up the TT. Here is a...

    Are manufacturers overcompensating on tires

    So I just finished a 2k + mile trip only 1800 towing. I most likely double the amount of miles on the tires from new last year. I went through 3 tires in the last 250 miles of the trip. I had one replaced in Amarillo and the tire tech mentioned how it looked like it had been bouncing. The...

    Tire jacks

    Does anyone have suggestions on the best jack to use in the event of having to replace a flat tire on your 5th wheel? A big heavy floor jack seems out of the question because of weight issues. The little dinky jack that comes with my pickup looks too weak. Does anyone use a bottle jack? Thanks...

    Tire Pressure Sensor Fault!

    All, 2023 Sunseeker 3010 classic on E450 chassis. The right rear tire sensors for outside and inside come on periodically after about an hour of driving. When you stop for a few minutes and turn the rig off the light goes out. Just trust it knowing if you have an actual issue or not. Anyone have...

    Please advise me on cold tire pressure for my 2018 Mercedes FR Forester MBS. Just had a rotation and shop left the tire pressure at 75 lb. I think this may be a little high. Thanks Papa Dee

    Tire rotation issue with Beyond/Transit 350HD AWD Dually

    My Ford owner's manual tells me to rotate tires when changing oil using the so-called cross-rotation approach: left front to right front, right front to left front, left rear pair to right rear, right rear pair to left rear. Ford dealer doesn't agree. They say this method may cause tire blow-out...

    Proper tire inflation

    I have a 2016 Isata 3 24FW. The tire pressure stickers on the door recommend 61psi on all tires but I’m not sure if that was put on for just the chassis. I had a tire shop recommended 70psi in the front and 80psi in the rear. I decided to get it weighed and the front axel is 3680Lbs and the rear...

    Wheel Stop / X chocks for 2022 235S that fit the tire space?

    I'm having trouble finding a pair of X chocks that fit the narrow space between the tandem wheels on my 2022 235S. It looks like the space between the tires is about 2 3/4" and nothing I've bought so far will work in that narrow space. Before I try to make a homemade version (something I'd...

    cold tire pressure

    I will be leaving MN in January and will check my cold tire pressures at temperatures well below zero (-20 to -30F) before leaving for the SW. If I inflate tires to recommended 65 psi (goodyear endurance) I'm worried the pressures would increase to a dangerous level once they heat up on the...

    I have bought a 2022 Silverado with the trailering package. I need 4 tpms sensors to monitor tire pressure and temperature on my trailer.

    Tire Code Date

    Hello. Just joined forum, so bear with me as I still need to navigate around here. For now, how do I find the date on the tire/s? I read somewhere on here earlier they need to be changed 3-5 years. Whatever the case, this XLR is 8 years old and I’m not sure if previous owner even changed them. I...

    Hartland Tires, any experience?

    I am partial to 87MPH speed rated tires. I have had good past experience with Goodyear Endurance and Carlisle Radial Trail HD's. When I needed to replace tires last year, Goodyear had paused production of the Endurance and fresh ones were hard to find. I was disappointed to find that the...

    I have a 2021 Jayco Greyhawk on the E450 chassis and I’m looking for a 16” steel rim to set up a spare tire combo. It has to be a 2019 or later rim to fit over the calipers. Anyone know of any available?

    Concord 300ds spare tire tool

    Yesterday we got new tires on our 300ds including the spare. The tire dealer asked me for the spare removal tool. I told him I didn’t have one. Watching them struggle to get the sore down now has me looking for the proper tool. Can anyone point me in the right direction?
