I haven't heard any specifics about them on Redwood, but I was sure disappointed to see such a bottom line tire used on a higher end coach. :(

Grizzby, I don't think a different pinbox would...

I believe that tiff was with me, and I'm sure you took it out of context if that is how you feel. I don't recall saying G tires and disk brakes were the answer to everything. I do have an aversion...

Great summary Oregonbound!

I might add above, the Michelin XPS Rib is rated for 3,040 lbs, so they is only suitable for up to a 6K axle. Although the Rib has a good history, I don't believe...

I'm confused,
did you replace the wheels for the Hercules tires? If so are you sure you had the G614s before or Marathon? Goodyear gave you a credit for bad alignment?

So I happen to have 5 LRG G614 tires, but my Redwood sticker was replaced last year because the GVWR was wrong, and with that it now shows my spare as LRE, even though it is not.

A little satire-...

Not sure I would have went with the ST with several LT tires in that size available, and I don't think you will like the "made in-" part on the sidewall for those Hercules.

Its called an "equalizer", or Trailair's hybrid version of one - resulting in the trade name "equa-flex".

The problem with the LT tires, is there are no tires in a 16" that can match the axle weight rating. I'm just glad Redwood stuck with the Goodyear tires, as SOB that are forced into a G rated tire...

That Michelin XP Rib is only rated for 3,040 lbs. That would limit your total axle weight to 12,160 lbs. I couldn't do it, and I don't think Michelin would stand behind a problem with the tire if it...

not sure of all the accuracies of the story, but I understood years ago Goodyear farmed out the G614 overseas and they had catastrophic failure rates, so they brought them home.

Last non-painted Montana I saw at the RV show boasted an MSRP over $100K. Its all relative.

RVs have a HUGE MSRP markup - its no mystery. Don't focus on Redwood with that statement.

In my opinion, a G614 derated to the 3,580 lb limit of the T03 wheel would be 1Billion times better than continuing to run the ST Marathon Maypops. Replace the stems, and you're set.

Actually Michelin doesn't make a G rated tire. They should.

The only US made LRG is the Goodyear G614. There are some overseas made LRGs, but what would be the point.
