New tires

Well it’s time for new tires on our coach. Been using Michelins since we ordered our first coach from Newmar in ‘94. Have had zero problems over the years, but now am considering Toyos because of price. Any opinions on these tires? A set of eight will cost me about three thousand less than Michelins. At this stage of our lives, about three thousand miles a year is all we are able to put on the coach.

I've been a fan of Toyo's for over 40 years on all my vehicles. I've had real good luck with them.

I replaced my Michelins with Toyos a few months ago. Very happy with the softer ride and thousands in savings.

I replaced aged out Michelin’s with 8 new Toyo’s 3 years ago. Everyone I talked to liked them. No issues at all so far. I would buy them again.

Same as others , replaced Michelin with toyo 295/80/22.5 8 years ago … very happy and was prepared to replace them ( age only as they looked great at 60,000 miles ) with the same until we traded the whole coach.

We had Toyo 144s on our last coach for 9 years. No cracks. Great tires! (Stored inside)
Looking for Toyos now for our present coach. Our size seems to be on back order, everywhere!

Just replaced all 8 Michelins on my 2003 45' Essex. Cost was a factor but reviews from many different groups and owners led me to the Toyo's. We head out from the northeast portion of Oklahoma next Monday heading to New Hampshire for work and wanted new rubber for the trip.
