FC coach owner: what 11R22.5 tires do you use / recommend?
---I bought COOPER 22.5 load range H for my front tires on my
80FC31. Truckers seem to like them. seem OK to me.
By the way,I would sell my 80FC31 for $28,000.
808 599-7741 or email me........2 year warranty left on new
transmission. cost me $7600 last month to get it installed etc.
Regards,
Hank Hannigan

Where do you live? No need to give you a name of a dealer in Oregon
if you live in Florida. How old are the tires on your coach? Do you
know how to read the DOT code. Are the side walls weather cracked?
As for replacing 4 of 6 tires you sound as though you are a little
uncomfortable with just 4 new tires. Think of it this way you payed
a lot of money for a nice coach and now you are talking about
scrimping on your tires a major safety feature. If you needed a
brake job would you put the old brakes on the rear? I could not
drive down the road in comfort knowing I was running on a set of
maypops. You never want to put old tires next to new tires. I would
not even run then on a tag axle. I run Michelin 16 ply 12r22.5, XZ2.
This is what Bluebird recommended for my coach.
