315/80 vs 12R - was Overweight

[birdshill123]

Here is something to consider: Go to any large RV dealer ( I think there are
still one or two in business). Look at all the Class A's. You will see 2 brands.
Goodyear and Michelin. If an RV mfr. could save 6x$200 per unit they would jump
at the chance. Why do you not see Sumitomos or Double Coin on the units? The
only RV mfr. I know of that tried another brand was National/ CC and that ended
up in a law suit (Toyo). Tiffin was installing GoodYears and had lots of
troubles. Bob Tiffin paid for Michelins to be installed at his expense. If a
customer wants GoodYears on his Tiffin they will NOT install them at the
factory.
