My (somewhat) new to me 1994 Monaco Crown Royale - Signature has 285/75-24.5 tires.

Who else has this size, and what tires are you running?

We have the same model coach as you only with a Cummins 400 in it. We just replaced our 24.5" tires at Les Schwab since we were in the N.W. at the time. As stated earlier..........the tires were easy to locate.

Paul,
We bought TOYO M137's. 285/75R24.5 6 tires for $2697.75 out the door in Fallon, Nevada. They steer good and ride well. The TOYO tires also have a good history from other RV'ers.

That sounds like a decent deal.

Thanks

Paul,
Does your coach have a Trekmate Alarm system and if so do you know where the brain box is?

My wiring diagrams mention an optional security system, but I don't have one.

I was told RV tires are built cheap and mainly for comfort by a large commercial tire retail store. Semi Tractor trailer tires are far superior. Can someone confirm this?
