Tire Shopping
If you feel Michelins are unacceptable, use Toyos. I have a set of 16 ply
Kumhos on my truck and they ride and handle fine, but they might be a little harsh on a bird. I think Toyo has the closest match to Michelin as far as tread and side wall. I do mount my own tires. I wouldn't go with Kelly or BFG, didn't like the look side by side with others. Mike Hohnstein ----- Original Message ----- From: pattypape To: WanderlodgeForum@yahoogroups.com Sent: Friday, June 03, 2005 7:03 PM Subject: [WanderlodgeForum] Tire Shopping Well, I am still investigating possible tire replacement brands. I read many of the previous archive postings on the ongoing tire debate. Many have a strong opinion about there favorite tire manufacturer, especially the loyal Michelin followers. There were also other brands mentioned such as: Kelly, Goodyear, BF Goodrich, Toyo, a Les Schwab tire called Double Coin, Bridgestone etc. The 12R 22.5 load range H Michelin tires are about $500.00 each, installed and out the door. They carry a seven year / 700,000 mile manufacturer defect warranty. We presently are quite happy with our Firestone T575 tire. This tire is obsolete and no longer manufactured, the replacement Firestone is FS560 or Bridgestone R250 Our questions are: Does anyone have experience with the Firestone FS560?? ( In the 12R 22.5 LRH size) Why should an RV owner help subsidize a seven year / 700,000 warranty?? Which brand are you happy with ?? Maybe this should be a poll? Any inputs are appreciated, Bill 88 fc ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Yahoo! Groups Links a..
