    Heads up on trailer tire availability

    Just a little heads up as I am getting email this morning from tire distributors, stating that if the port strike goes on for very long it is going to affect the availability of foreign produced trailer tires, which the majority are. Just letting you know, in case you are on the fence about...

    Our 2016 Hyperlite toy hauler sat unused for a few years. We are now going to use it. The tires currently have 40psi in all four, almost exactly. They are 8 ply, with a max cold pressure of 65psi. Curious about pressure loss during sitting, I called several dealers including the one from...

    Help with tire size- 205 vs 215

    Time to replace, and upgrade my original tires. I currently have 205/75R14. Was looking at the Goodyear Endurance tires and looks like I have two size options for 14" wheel. Either the 205/75R14 or 215/75R14. A set of the 215's would be about $30 more. I'm assuming I can use either the 205 or...

    Tire Temperatures?

    Short question – what range of tire temperatures are you seeing and what is the max before you should stop and let them cool? Long version – I’ve been using a 10 position TPMS for many years (EEZ on prior coach, TST on new Europa). Am comfortable with monitoring the PSI swings as the tires heat...

    2024 Wolf Pup 16FQ Tire Stem

    I apologize in advance. This is my first camper so I am very new at this. My tires have a green cap on the valve stem that says 65 in yellow numbers. I assume that is the required psi as it is not written on the tire that I could find. When I start to take the cap of of the stem air starts...

    Can a tire's TPMS sender be reset?

    Anyone know if the TPMS sender located inside the tire on a common truck or car can be reset without pulling the tire off? I have one in a 2007 Ford F150 and one in a 2011 Ford Escape that are each sending false Low Pressure warnings. Thanks.

    I need new tires for my 2146BHX, but tow vehicle is down for a repair. Anyone ever taken the four wheels off and just took them to tire store for new tires and brought back to put on?

    Tire Pressure

    How do you determine tire pressure if 4 corner weighing is not available? Max cold based on label by driver overhead cabinet? When setting pressure based on this label, the TPMS warning indicates high pressure right away, is there a way to reset the value for these warnings? Thanks in advance!

    Are these tires too overkill?

    Unfortunately, our Goodyear Endurance tires have timed out. We bought them in 2018. They only have a couple of thousand miles on them. We never really traveled as much as many of you, to begin with, and we'll be traveling even less going forward. I don't want to spend as much as new...

    We had a sudden and heavy thunderstorm here today. I had my awning out on my Rockwood 2606WS while it was sitting in my driveway. The awning filled up with water and it collapsed the frame on one side of the awning. The frame is pretty bent up along with the fitting at the end of the awning...

    Tire Questions

    Be patient and kind please. :) We are looking at a used Forester Class C on E450 chassis. We believe the tires have dry rot really bad. So bad, that our first stop if we buy it is the tire shop.

    Feedback on tire size change

    I've got a 2019 Berk XLT 43C with Michelin X Line Energy Z 16-ply in 275/80R22.5. I plan to at least weigh the axles if I can't find a four corner weigh option before the tire purchase. I was willing to pay up for the same tire but two different shops tell me this "unique to Michelin size" is...

    No manufacture date on Goodyear tires?

    I just received my order of Goodyear Endurance tires to replace my China bombs and discovered that they show no manufacture date! Unless I'm mistaken, shouldn't it be after the DOT number? Mine show a blank oval. What's up with that?
