About those replacement tires . .

I noticed several of you all have bought brands that I can't find 80 aspect ratio in. Did you go to an 85?

Many have replaced with G14 Goodyear tires and they are 85. I replaced my 80's with the G14's a couple years back.

85's seem to fit very well. We've had ours for a couple of years now.

I put G614's on a few months ago and like them just fine. I also noticed the new Montana's at camping world (at least the one I looked at had G614's installed.

Normally 85s are on pickups (and RVs) as LTs, and 80s are on RVs (only) as STs.

I replaced my 80's with 85 14 ply Goodyear's. I feel a lot better about the 14 ply and the RV rides much better.
