We have been running 14 ply G-rated tires since we purchased our first Montana in 2006 on ALCOA aluminum rims with steel valve stems. When we purchased our Big Sky in 2008, part of the
deal was to have the new E rated tires (and Tredit rims) swapped for our used G-rated tires (and ALCOA rims). We are currently running Gladiator QR25-TS 235/85 R16's after 5 years of running the old ones. They run about $225 per tire and
in our experience we have have had no issues. Yes, they are from China, but in full-timing use,
Two trailers, 4 tires, 5 years, 30k miles, 0 blowouts - priceless!
We put our current set on in April of this year and our first set was put on in early 2006. We run them at 105 PSI.
