Don't know if it is just the store policy in our area but they told us that they would not install tires on our dual wheel truck or any RV's. Maybe not all stores have the same policy.

I got a quote from Costco for 4 of the same tires for 887.96 mounted
and balanced. I would have to bring in the wheels as they don't have the room to have my trailer there and change them. Going to get them
done this month. Will also replace any rubber stems I have.

Michelin® XPS Rib® tires are the best value per mile in the Michelin commercial tire lineup and an ideal choice for commercial trailers because of low rolling resistance (for better fuel economy), a long-wear tread design and retreadability. These tires also have the strength of a reinforced all-steel construction for lasting durability.
Responsive handling helps you negotiate through tough traffic
Greater durability and puncture
resistance from a third steel belt.
Easily retreadable all-steel casing
Lowest cost per mile in this category
Resists sidewall damage with the
sculptured sidewall protector.
Sidewall: black serrated
outline lettering.
Load Range: E
Service Description: 120/116Q
Warranty: All Michelin tires have a limited warranty, * which covers defects in workmanship and material for the life of the original usable tread or for 6 years from date of purchase, whichever occurs first.

LT235/85 R16 XPS Rib are nice but you need to watch your rated weight. My Missions are rated over 3500 lbs.
the Ribs are rated at 3020 lbs I'd be downgrading if I went to the Ribs. I have the 3400RL.
I do want to replace the Missions though.
