Just heard back from Tim Maxwell, the AS rep. He states that Airstream starts using #11 Dexter axles with the 12" brakes on their 25' models, with the lightest ones (SS International, and SS Ocean Breeze) having a GVWR of 7,000 lbs. The FB Flying Cloud has a GVWR of 7,300 lbs. All these heavier models come with 15" wheels and tires, the 23-footers and smaller with 14". Again- hope this info right from AS helps all of you to make an informed, comfortable decision. When I replace mine, it will most likely be with #10 Dexters with 7,000 lbs of raw stopping power!
