1st Year for F53 22.5" tires

[hdzcar]

What was the 1st year of the F53 going to the 22.5" tires for the larger Chassis?

I believe it was the '07 model, at least for a Bounder.

That's weird. My 38' 2008 motorhome that is on a 2007 F53 chassis came with 19.2 tires on the 22k chassis. Looking at the 2007 specs mine should have had the 22.5 on the 22,000 lb GVWR.

Actually, it was 2006 for the gas Bounder. The 2005 flyer still lists 19.5" rims.

It was an option from Ford starting in 2004 on some of the higher GVWR chassis.

And by the 2011 F53 model year chassis, 22K, the 22.5" was standard and the 19.5" was optional. On mine, Winnebago went with the optional 19.5".
