We just had new 365s put on at a local shop and have taken the coach on a 2 hour cruise to Nashville this past weekend. While droning down the highway at about 60mph it feels like we are hitting bumps about every 10th of a second. Almost like the tire is out of round… it does smooth out sometimes and the tracking is pretty straight. The shop did manage to steal my EezTire transponders (or whatever the tire mounted air pressure/temp thingies are called) - so I pulled the two from the tags and put them on the front. The tire pressures were at 115 and 125 but will check the cold this morning to be sure… I have always run them at 100 even and it rode very well and the tires lasted 8 years with no problems (other than having an uneven wear pattern on the outside of the passenger tire). We are planning a much longer (10 hours) trip next weekend to TX and would like to not ruin the new tires I just had installed… any ideas? I do probably need to get new tie rod ends but not sure that would cause something like this.
At Richards recommendation we used tire beads on our new Michelin 315s last December and highly recommend them. The book recommended 12 oz we put in 16oz per tire. Absolutely rock solid smooth!
Having the tires / wheels balanced and realigned at southern tire mart in Conroe/Willis TX - these guys work on lots of coaches and Rudy recommends them so it was worth the 1.5 hour drive to get them to align. They are doing a full alignment front and back with a laser system
