The tires on the unit have plenty of tread but are 2015 dates so I'm thinking we would be better off to replace them. Just seeking some experience from folks on the forum regarding tire manufacturer recommendations. Size needed is 295/75/R22.5 Horsedoc • View posts Dixie --- N.

Took off an aged out set of Michelins. Toyos ride better and handle better Wjohns02 • View posts Nc Full Member Joined: 06/04/2012 View Profile Good Sam RV Club Member Offline Posted: 03/06/23 12:30pm Link  |  Quote  |  Print  |  Notify Moderator Thanks for the quick feedback. Toyos are what the dealer also recommended but appreciate the feedback from some real world users. rk911 • View posts DuPage County Senior Member Joined: 05/30/2004 View Profile Good Sam RV Club Member Offline Posted: 03/06/23 12:45pm Link  |  Quote  |  Print  |  Notify Moderator on MH#2 (35' class A gasser) we used Goodyear (19" tires). over 15-yrs we had no issues. on MH#3 (40' class A gasser) we went with Michelin (22.5" tires). kept that MH for 7-yrs. one problem in year 2 traced back to an issue we had on a county road in AL. as we rounded a curve on a narrow 2-lane country road we encounted a massive hole in the pavement. not really a hole...half of the pavement wasn't there. the missing segment was 3-4' wide, 6" or so deep and about 20' long. i was able to slow down but not stop. the MH rocked to the right when the front wheels hit and then back to level just before the rear wheels hit. scared the you know what out of us. we had slowed from 20-25 mph to maybe 10-15 mph so damage was limited but I neglected to have the alignment checked. the next season i noticed some nasty sidewall scraping on the steer tires so I replaced those Michelins with Michelins. no issues for thr next 5-yrs.

I have asked for the price on the Michelins but expect it to hurt my wallet.

Have them inspected by a tire place. Chances are they’re good for a couple more years. Michelin has a swap out timeframe of 10 years.
