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

[Larry]

Rob,
When researching, (another thought came to mind) the specs for the 315 was you
needed a 9" rim, that is why I did not look into them at the time... Did you
change over to 9" rims, or were they already on the coach???

Hi Sailor boy. I believe the 315s have a little wider footprint and
not as

tall as 12s but not entirely sure.
