FC coach owner: what 11R22.5 tires do you use / recommend?
Ken. I'm kind of in the same boat having two three year old tires on
the front and older tires on the rear. I imagine the answer depends on
how much driving you do, assuming proper routine care. I only drive one
to two thousand miles per year and find the Kumho tires that I
purchased, three years ago, on the front, work fine. I paid about $300
per tire, plus tax, mounted and balanced. I purchased mine in McAllen,
Texas at a place that sold new and used truck tires and did a lot of
quick, in and out, business with truckers. I never thought to ask about
credit for my old tires. Unless I hear otherwise, I'll probably shop
around for the best price that I can get on Kumhos and buy them for rear
also. Not much more that I can say. Henry Claeys, Austin, Tx 1979 FC
