So what I did was go to the 235-85-16's... they are 2.5"s taller which drops the rpm about 500, so that gets you right in the sweet spot of about 3200 rpms @ 55-60 mph, and also lets you put the gear selector in 4TH gear and stop the gear hunting... I also changed out the rims to moto metals , black...the first mod was to pull all the easter egg vinyl stripes off, who the hell thought that up should be hung by their thumbs... they will never last and ruin the gel coat...once the havasu heat gets to them they fade and crack, so the sooner you pull them off the better..I like the plain look...it's cool,.. but cool is not for every body, next best would be to have them painted on... but heat will also cause them to crack..so best would be to have them sprayed in gel coat and keep the rv out of dirrect sun lite when not in use,...most have figured out the lot rot deal and it explains why most everybody wants rv garage homes..rv's and boats need to be garaged to keep the like new look!!
