Due to cost and reviews we went with Toyo's. Purchased and installed on our 2004 Itasca Meredian in 2009. No cracks or problems so far.
I would buy them again. Good luck.

Thanks for all the replies. We went with Coopers. $204 per tire, mounting and balancing included. Thanks again. Cman.

Contray to popular opinion Michelin did not invent the radial tire. The inventor of the radial tire was Arthur W Savage, a tire manufacturer in San Diego, Ca. He patented the tire in 1915.

Can you share where you got that price? It seems VERY good.

Just because a tire cost more does not make it the best.

A very interesting reading on the history of radial tires. It is long but well worth reading.

Sully's comment x's 2. There is a reason companies spend so much on marketing and michelin wins at that game.

Here locally in our little town of California Missouri, Nathans tires. Not some big tire store or internet site. I have found over the years if you can trade locally, and regularly, they can useally match any box store or internet site. We have quite a few motorcycles we have collected over the years, and when I bring in a box store or internet price, they useally beat it or get very close. And I really prefer to support brick and mortar shops. Thanks again, Cman.
