Not Much Luck Buying Tires for our WL in San Antonio, TX :(

[brad barton]

Liz,
Kuhmo tires have a pretty solid reputation. Discount Tires has a mailorder
service. I've had Micheline, Toyo and Yokohama tires tires on RV's and they all
did okay. As discussed earlier in this forum, I think a lot of coach owners
will have a wide range of opinions on tires. But the common denominator is
maintenance of the air pressure. If you can accept a firmer ride, your tires
will run cooler, last longer and give you better fuel economy no matter what you
by. Costco and Sams also sell RV tires at many locations. Brad Barton 00LXiDFW

I'm not in Texas but recently purchased Sumitomo tires. Why aren't Sumitomo
tires available in Texas, most everything else is?I did have to order them and
wait 3 days.Leroy Eckert1990 WB-40 "Smoke N Mirrors"Niceville, FL----- Original
