https://rvlife.com/tire-blowouts-in-rvs/
Here are the 5 points:
1) Proper inflation
2) Do not overload
3) Right tires for the job
4) Prevent Dry-Tire rot
5)
Replace tires that are 6yrs old
Regarding #5...it’s really a shame that I must replace 6 perfectly good looking, lots of tread tires.
That is, Ford chassis has 2016 dated tires (even though Thor build date is 2017).
So I’m now beginning the hunt for 225-75R-16 C rated 3,195# tires.
We’ve discussed this topic in the past, lots of threads on it.
Wondering if Forum members are practicing the 6yr tire replacement rule?
