Your 2020 Montana most likely came with Sailuns. Thet are a good tire. I am on my second set and won't hesitate to but them again.

When we purchased our Sailuns early this year the best price was from Walmart with free delivery to our door. We had the tires mounted at Discount Tires.

Skip the 80 series and go to the 85 series, more reserve weight capacity, raises the camper a tad. A no-brainer IMOP.

Sailuns. Look on line for the best deal and have them delivered to your door. Then have your favorite tire shop do the install.

What I should of asked is, since my tires are about 4 plus years almost 5 should I swamp them out? They still have alot of meat in the but I don’t know how many miles the previous owner had driven on them. What is your opinion and experience?

Recommended at 5 years. Really depends on the climate. A lot of direct sun is bad. I wouldn't chance it. I have a 2020 GMC with 10,000 miles on it. I'm dreading having to replace the tires in 2025. But a flat pulling a 5'er on the TV or trailer....no bueno. I'll push the truck tires before I push the trailer.

Mine are 4 1/2 and I plan on replacing, especially since I had one totally explode on the way to the Our Rally in July just East of Cleveland on I90.

Not bad, J-Panel was able to be popped back in the got the Fender Skirt through the Factory at our Rally for Free. Worst thing, we both got Lime Sickness for changing the tire at the side of the road.

I concur with the Sailuns. While you are at it bump up to Load range G. Equivalent to a 14 ply tire. You won’t have to worry about them at all on your 3 month trek.
