Helmsey......Todd 134 Posted April 30, 2014 Report Share Posted April 30, 2014 Spend the extra $$ and get the Maxxis. They are worth it, and will be better than the triangle brand tires. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Grumpy and Grandma 739 Posted April 30, 2014 Report Share Posted April 30, 2014 So, looks like I'm at a C tire. Which is fine since it originally had "B" so your up one load range, so that's good.X2 on the Maxxi Quote Link to post Share on other sites
twiceblessed....nacole 433 Posted April 30, 2014 Author Report Share Posted April 30, 2014 Thank you fiends. Scheduled the tire replacement for tomorrow; we're going with Maxxis. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Helmsey......Todd 134 Posted May 1, 2014 Report Share Posted May 1, 2014 I think you made a good choice with Maxxis. Be sure to check for proper inflation and keep an eye out for strange wear on them. If you do those 2 things they should serve you well for several years. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
stacktester 78 Posted May 1, 2014 Report Share Posted May 1, 2014 Do yourself a favor. Go to a Tire and rim 1" larger than you have now. I had 15" wheels and no matter what they say they always put too small a tire and rim on a trailer. I went to a 235/80/16 tire and I have no issues. My camper came from the factory with the bare minimum on it and I fixed it. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

My camper came from the factory with the bare minimum on it and I fixed it. New tires were installed today, but we may look at increasing the tire size (which would require new rims) next time around. Hiccup this time, was the new rims. Tires themselves were expensive...so we weren't prepared to absorb the cost of new rims. We had considered it, but when I asked a local RV dealership, they told me that there wasn't really a benefit increasing from what we have now (a 14") to a larger (15"). One benefit I could see, in the larger tire, is that we might be able to get a D rated tire rather than the C we had to go with this time around. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
