It is a personal decision. Most feel 4-6 months is fair for RV tires. Just stand your ground for what ever your limits are and be prepared to "walk" if they can't fill the bill. October 21 I purchased 6 tires at a GCR truck tire center in Coburg Oregon and they were 3 weeks old, they move a lot of tires in that shop.

It depends on the manufacturer and tire size. Some sizes may be manufactured outside the US and some manufacturers manufacture in large batches. I've bought Michelins 3 times in the last coupe years. The oldest tires I got were 3 months old. It also helps to buy from a volume sales dealer.

My 305/70's were only 3 weeks old when they got to the dealer. When I ordered them there were none in the country and had to be shipped in. Guess I got the first ones that got here.
