Where did you find Michelin says not suitable for RVs? This page indicates that it is suitable, or at least doesn't say it's not.

Color me confused.

I suspect the 10 inch Min Dual Spacing is the problem for RVs

I did scroll down - still didn't see any place that said not recommended for RVs. The "TRUCK TIRE REFERENCE CHART" link on that page labels them as "REGIONAL & BUS/RV." The 10" spacing is something to look at - is that center-to-center (I think), or sidewall-to-sidewall (nah)?

That said, the tire industry could be a lot better about standardizing all their labelling, and not changing it so often. I have 6 year old tires I'm about to replace and they seem to be labeled to a different standard.

Perhaps near the bottom where it said : Suitable for RV = False.

In my tire search I found this U tube that talks about the Pathfinders. We dont have that store near us. So I went with Nexen

well, that's interesting - some pages say there are, some say they aren't. An RV tire that isn't suitable for RVs. Thanks!

Great deal, excellent service "Park House Tires" in San Diego
