I was trying to ask a question but got kicked off I do not think its out there so I will try again. We have a Montana and when I drove across the country last July I had 2 blow outs and one getting ready to go. The replacement tires I was able to get are all good for 3,100 LBS. my camper alone weights 14,500 and when its hooked up to the truck its 3,000 less. Some people tell me I am fine some say I am over loaded. This is our first camper. I am brand new to this forum some people I ran into when we got to Fla. This year told me about it so today I thought I would give it a try. I only had about 6K miles on those tires when I left home, I got the camper in 08 the tires are now 5 years old by the number that is on them. I see people that have the 14 ply tires in many spots my tires are 80 LB. Marathon's the better tires are 110 lb tires. I see someone said on this form they could not use them I am also not sure if I can. Any idea's would be appreciated.
