It's time for new tires and I'm beginning to shop for brands and prices.
Does anyone have any suggestions, OTHER,than Camping World and North Trail RV?
I've search the internet without any success. The motorhome is near Immokalee and LaBelle and that would be closer if there was a place located there.
Thanks for the help

It depends on your brand preference. TCI IS just west of I75 on MLK and is a Michelin truck tire dealer. GCR is just off Ortez and is a Bridgestone truck tire dealer. Both are reasonably good to deal with and deal with lots of motor homes. If you are a member of FMCA'S or Monaco International, both have a national account deal with Michelin.

I just got a great deal from the local Ford dealer - was only $4 a tire more than Tire Rack. They have a guaranteed low price policy. Might have to call around to find a dealer for the big sizes ....

I don't know - that's why I said call around. Some Ford Dealers appear to sell trucks that might use tires that big, or be able to order them.

Be sure to insist on fresh tires. Our Michelins were mfg 6 weeks prior to sale. Friend who didn't know better got tires that were 2 yrs old.

I know it's a ways from where you are, but try Town Tire in Gainesville. I've bought tires there twice. Prices were great and so was the service!

My suggestion is dont buy brand name. I recently bought some Remington tire made by good year at about $200 less per tire then the Goodyear product of the same size.
