Remember one thing. Most of our tires on our RVs don't see the miles like driving a regular family vehicle. They sit there, taking abuse from the sun and weather. Miles usually don't matter, years do. The number of years you have racked up before you should consider replacing will be a point of discussion but for pure safety, most say that around five years old, start saving your money for a new set, no matter how many miles are on them. This is why you frequently see travel trailers on the side of the road with blown tires. People ignore the age of the tires because the tread looks so new. I am obsessed with covering the tires on our Axis, even on a weekend trip. Lots of web sites on the subject to do your research.
