Yes, I do same depending on application. SUV loading much lower than RV as percentage. RV tires I look at very carefull as being caught out in the middle of nowhere is worth avoiding. I had heard of issues with OEM michelins start as early as 3.5 years. Tread was excellent depth, only very faint cracks why take chance? RV was smoother with the new tires. In future, will be 5 years if towing out of state.

Ordering open race trailer tires this week as spares are showing cracking so current tires are 5 years and will become new spares as I will mount new on spares.

Hot florida summer florida roads are tough on tires.
