    Tires (again)

    I was just on the GD website to look at the current prices, and my 2600RB increased by about $8000. What I found interesting is that Good Year tires are now listed as MANDATORY, with a $391 upcharge. I would have gladly paid this upcharge, but it was not an option when I purchased in November...

    Do I need chocks on either side of both tires?

    N00b here. About to pickup "Kitty" (as in Hello Kitty, don't ask) this weekend and furiously shopping Amazon. My TT is a single axle, which means the X chock won't work and I'll need to get chocks on the ground. Looking at Maxxhaul rubber chock, comes in a 2-pack on Amazon. I have seen...

    Fabric undercovering on slideouts above tires?

    A china bomb got me a few weeks ago, and tore up the fabric undercovering on the slideout. I know many will use sheet metal to cover any torn undercovering, or the entire thing. I'm concerned about getting water out WHEN water gets in there. I don't think there's any way you can completely...

    Bigger tires

    I am curious on some input for putting bigger / wider tires on my toy hauler. A bit more ground clearance would be nice but an axle flip would make my trailer look silly. Looks like I would gain roughly and inch going from 205/75r15 to 225/75/r15 on my 260RT. My biggest reason for wanting a...

    Front Tires

    Just added 45 degree extenders and TST flow through sensors to the front tires . Do I need to have them balanced again ? If so can I use the front levelers to raise the front so they can get the tires off ?

    Tire balancing

    I called my local RV dealer to see about getting four new tires put on my AmeriLite. During the course of the conversation, I asked if getting the tires installed included balancing. The lady said "Trailer tires don't need to be balanced." I find this hard to believe. Is she right? thanks, Bill

    2016 DX3 and I need new tires.

    So the tires on the DX3 are now just over 6 years old and have tons of tread left, but are beginning to crack. I have heard trucks replace their tires at 6 years, so I guess this makes some sense. Any recommendations on a replacement tire that is not so damn expensive? If I am only going to...

    Tires

    I own a 2014 390RB and we are currently full time and parked most of the time. I had new 22.5" tires installed last August. We are parked on a stone surface and on a slight rear to front slope. Although the auto level jacks do a good job, I put blocks of wood (2x12) under the front tires and...

    Tire tread depth differences, new tires.

    As I look at tires (235/80/16) I see different brands with different tread depth most other things being equal. Example; Goodyear endurance. 8/32 tread depth. 87mph speed rating West lake. 10/32 tread depth, 75 mph Provider. 11/32. 81mph So what is the advantage to more tread, longer tire...

    Hello, We just purchased a used 2016 RPod 179 with the original 2015 (correct) ST235/75R15 C load tires. Having had an older trailer tire blow out on the freeway in the past, I'm going to replace these with high quality new tires. They are not worn, just six years old. Problem, none of the...

    I'LL SAY IT BEFORE YOU GUYS DO..."OH NO, ANOTHER TIRE POST." Just had my LAST encounter with Power King "Blow"max ST 235/85R16 E (10 ply) rated tires.

    I have the Castle Pops on my 2019 Microlite. It has been sitting at a campground that we enjoy this being the third year now. We plan on starting to travel every now and then and I am upgrading the tires. I only need to know if this will work, which I am sure it will, but looking for...
