My 40' diesel pusher needs new rear tires. I was quoted a good price on Cooper RM272 275-R70-22.5 tires.

Does anyone know anything about these?

Did you Google them? Lots of info. Nothing wrong with Cooper.

Yes, I did Google it...it several different search terms. I din't find much at all about this particular model in MH service.

The info I found stated that these were "suitable for RV use", and "well suited for recreational vehicles where stopping and starting occur frequently".

Lots of info on the design as well ("premium, high-scrub tread compound", "stone ejectors", rounded shoulder profile") etc

If the price is good, I'd be on them.

Yrs, I read all the sales hype, but was looking for reviews from folks who have them.

We have the Cooper RM170 tires in 19.5 on our rig with about 3k on them. The ride quality and handling is good, not much road noise, and I got all 6 installed for $1,200! I am running Centramatic balancers instead of beads, but so far, no complaints about the tires.
