Both sets of tires lasted less than 18 months, the tire store in question seemed unconcerned that 6 out of 8 failed for no reason at all,other than poor construction. The tire brand is towmaster. Tap in dangerous tires towmaster and u will find a large number of the same type of failures. All sizes. Bad thing is your in danger even if u never buy these tires,how many rv s do u pass in a days time. There are 3 of these stores in the villages better off sticking with the Goodyear store. U get what u pay for.

You certainly do make a good case for performing due diligence prior to any potentially critical purchase. The internet, in the right hands, can be a life saver.
