It looks like I need tires on my 42' Monaco. Is there any recommendations?

Toyo M144's. 295 80R 22.5 Just did all 8 on my coach for $3325.00 installed

I would get Michelins through the FMCA Advantage program!

I have had great luck with Bridgestone but they are not cheap , just about
as high as Michelins .

Many people are reporting that Toyos are very good so that's what I will
probably buy next time .

I've had Toyo M144's 295/80R22.5 on my coach for a year and couldn't be happier. They ride very well and since I had to up size to an 80 profile I can run lower air pressure for a slightly softer ride.

Another vote for Toyo M144's.

I have Hankooks on mine and like them way better than Michelins.

The FMCA discount program has both Michelin and Continental. Both are great tires. Most of us will never wear out a set, they will just age out.
I would avoid the Goodyear G670 and Michelin XRV (but the Michelin XZA2 Energy is a great tire).
You can check out FMCA pricing even if you are not yet a member.

Just put the Toyos on our 6 months ago, replacing Michelins. I am happy with them.

I put Toyo’s on last year and would definitely go with Toyo’s again !
I replaced the Goodyear’s!

Hey, 1doodad, where did you get that price? I paid ~$3800 for 8 in OR where there is no sales tax and thought I did great. Good deal!

Another ++ for the Toyos: 2.5 years, over 20K miles. Replaced Goodyears, which are, IMHO, junk. The Toyos ride better, handle much better and hold air.

Cheers,

Hey Bob, I know several people and this one has been very good to me and sold them close to cost to me. I buy all my tires from him along with all my kids, good close family friend. Also paid $200.00 for the install with balance to the total of $3325.00

I purchased Michelin tires through the FMCA program several years ago to replace the factory (junk) Goodyear tires.

The Michelin tires were a huge improvement, although in fairness that is when I learned the importance of weighing the coach and setting tire pressures accordingly.

When these tires age out in a few years I will definitely keep an open mind about considering the Toyo's after reading this thread from well respected members.

It has been a few years ago so I can't remember exactly, but I know I paid WAY MORE for the Michelins even with the FMCA discount...and that was years ago!

After having 2 sets of Michelin's sidewall crack at the 3.5-4 year point, I went with Toyo M144 and am very pleased with the ride, and especially the price.
