Replacement Tires?

[jhydock34]

Looking for recommendations for tire replacements on my 2006 Newmar Cypress 5th wheel.
Currently, the RV has Goodyear LT 235/85R16 LOAD G G614 RST UNISTEEL Tires.
I am looking on line and see they cost over $300 per tire.
Any replacement recommendations would be helpful!

Load Range G tires are heavy-duty ST-series (Special Trailer) and designed to carry heavier loads. As a result, they are not inexpensive. Don’t be tempted to substitute less expensive LT-series (Light Truck) tires that might be available in the same size. They won’t adequately support the load imposed by your 5th wheel.

You may find a dealer that will shave the price a little, but in general, ST-series tires in the size you need are going to be around the $275-350 price point unless you go with Chinese-made off-brand tires and I would not recommend that.

Good luck.

I currently have LT tires on the RV!
You stated the G rating were ST tires.

If the placard on your 5th wheel specifies LT-series tires, then you are fine. I was under the impression that in trailer tires, Load Range G was only available in the ST-series. I could be wrong.
