I don't want to join the Marabomb club and after some forum research I have some options to consider.
My 5th Wheel is a 2012 Montana Mountaineer 326 Model with a Shipping weight of 10,825 and a carry capacity 3360 which max will push the weight to 14,000. I don't expect to hit the max GVWR because my practice is to dump tanks and carry 1/4 tank if that of fresh water.
I've decided to buy new tires and I have less than 1000 miles on the Marathons. What's my choice to be? Ruled out the G14's don't see the need given the weight plus the cost $1,650

What's the survey say? These are my tire choices from three different dealers in the Portland Oregon area.
Michelin 235 85R 16 XP Rib commercial 10 ply $1,150 installed
Bridgestone 235 85R 16 R250 BL LT $1,190 Firestone TransForce 235 85R 16 $930.
BFG Commercial 235 85R 16 T/A $749.00


Opinions welcome here.... Thanks
