I put a set of new tires on tis spring after six years and thousands of miles on the original ones.  I have a good dealer that I trust and told them to put on good new tires so I wouldn't have to worry.  He did and I don't.

I just couldn't do it. I had to replace the original tires on my 2017.5 pod.  After seeing lots of unhappy comments, and pictures of blown tires, i just couldn't do it. I'm going out on the maiden voyage next weekend, and it was go or get off the pot time. So this morning i went and had them throw 2 new Carlisle load range D radial trail hd tires on.  st205/75R14's. rated for 4000 pounds and 81 m.p.h..  I intend to do neither of those things, so i should be able to have peace of mind .
