LF tire blow out
#19

For those of us running the 11R 24.5 tire on our 96 vintage coaches, even a 315 is an upgrade. I have been running the same 24.5 Sumitomo tire - the ST778SE. Its load rated 16/H, 7160 pounds at 120 psi max. Sumitomo lists their 315 tire on a 22.5 rim, with a max load rating of 8270 lbs. 

I think the 315 would be a nice upgrade, with the 365 being a little too much for a non-slide coach such as mine. Also not sure a 365 would work on a Ridewell solid front axle.

I've asked Creslie at Newell what he thought of an upgrade to the 315 for a little added peace of mind. He said he would consider the fact that the coach has rolled around the country for 20 years with out incident. In other words don't bother. Not sure I like that answer.

I will eventually go the 315 route, but I feel the 365 would just be too much.
