| More Tires - D/E
There has been considerable discussion on the list about running "E" load range tires on Airstreams. Several people led by Andy of Inland RV claim that the "E" tires will beat your trailer up. Well I'm at Jackson Center and Airstream now offers "E" load range tires as a option. The "E" tires they're selling are Towmax ST225/75R15. Price is $113.00 plus mounting/balance.
And they are now offering 16" optional tires/wheels. These are also "E" load range and the tires are Good Year Wrangler HT LT225/75R16. They're selling the tire/wheel combo for $299.00.
So either Airstream is saying that "E" tires are OK or they're trying to get us to beat up our trailers so maybe they'll get more repair work. Since I'm not a dealer and am not trying to sell anything I hope mentioning the prices is acceptable.
