Tire durability

We have 30,000 miles on the original tires on my 335. I know that there are variables, but how many miles should I expect to get from these tires?

I am seeing even wear on all tires, so no over/under inflation or balance issues.

Do others rotate tires?

The tires are labeled regroovable, Huh?



Just preparing for the big expense sure to come in the future....

How old are they?

Do you keep them covered when not rolling down the road?

Any weather checking yet?

Mileage wise I would hope you could get 60k or better out of them.

mileage on RV tires is usually not the problem it is time. they are only good for 7 years. Michelin tires 22.5 800s are good for several 100,000 miles. they are sim truck tires. so 30,000 miles is just getting started.

Thanks for the responses.

Sounds like I won't be shopping for a couple of years.

We store indoors, but the tires are exposed when the unit is in use. Our usage last year was about 140 days, so they spend a bit of time uncovered.

The unit is a 2014 with original tires. I'll have to look at the manufacture date on the tires...

Any reason to rotate tires?

I am some what new to this but when I ask the dealer he said no that you don't rotate tires on the class A. There are retired truck drivers and some guys with more than 100,000 miles I am sure one of them will chime in.

I rotate at 10k. Fronts to drivers rear. Then fronts to passenger rear. That way only four tires need to be busted from rims at a time.
