Thanks guys for all the good info. Thought Newell might be under rating the front axle, after comparing it to my 14000 lb front axle on my Foretravel 320, the Newell components look about 50% bigger. 
I feel better about it, however I do want to get some 305's. Calling around Houston,  nobody can find the Michelins, they can find Goodyear G152's but they have to be shipped from the east coast, and no way to know the dates. If they are too old, I am stuck with shipping them back.
Plan on going to Ruidoso next month and would like to have some good tires, so if anyone knows of some Michelins in the south Texas area, please let me know.  Jim
On a happier [cheaper] note, pulled my bad alternator, expecting to pay $600 for a Penntex rebuild, only to find po had replaced it with a Bosch lh160, $200 with free shipping from Amazon!

2003 foretravel designer series. previous 2000 foretravel 34 ft, isc 350, 1995 45 ft Newell coach 385, Foretravel [2], 4106, 4905, wayne bus, wanderlodge fc, gmc motorhome.
