    Need Advice on Tires.

    In November 2019 I put new Goodyear Endurance tires on my trailer. We took it on one trip in December. Then I parked the trailer in our uncovered spot and winterized it.

    Power King Towmax Tires - Opinions?

    Has anyone put these tires on their coach? I'm needing ST205/75 D14, and our local tire shop suggests these. This is a rural shop that serves a lot of ranchers and farmers as well as automobile applications, so I tend to think they know what they are doing. I see reviews on Amazon and a...

    37RTH wheels and tires

    I ordered new tires for my Cedar Creek and have been to 5 places and no one can get the old westlakes off.

    Anyone else running Hankook Vantra tires?

    Anybody else besides me running Hankook Vantra tires,? I've only had a chance to use them once so far but I'm eased with them so far. I couldn't find Goodyear Endurance but did find these, and since the reviews were favorable to the Enduranxe tires, I went with them. I was petrified of the...

    M2 air hose for tires supplied?

    Does the Force or DX3 come new with an air hose and fitting to fill the tires? For some reason I thought I saw one early on but nowhere to be found now. Maybe I imagined it. I know where the quick disconnect port is on the coach, just don't know if I need to buy a hose, or keep looking.

    New tires installed with balancing beads instead of weights

    FYI, we just got new Michelin tires installed, on our Isata 5 30FW, and the tire shop placed balancing beads into the tires, instead of rim weights. Yesterday one of the tires needed to be inflated to get to the desired pressure. Once inflated and the hose removed the valve stem did not close...

    Negative Omni trail tires

    These were cheap tires, made in Thailand. They blew out in less than 2 years. I currently run Carlisle tires on my trailer, can't imagine what these would do on an RV.

    Are trailer tires balanced?

    Now that I know the tire shop may have gave me the wrong advice on the air pressure, are trailer tires balanced usually? How did these trailers come from the factory? The tire shop said they don’t usually balance trailer tires. I see online that some websites agree with that.
