When to Replace Your Tires
Replace Immediately If:
- Tread depth is 4/32" or less
- Visible cords or fabric showing
- Bulges, cracks, or cuts in sidewall
- Uneven wear patterns persist after alignment
- Any tire is 7+ years old
Replace Soon If:
- Tread depth is 5-6/32"
- Tires are 5-6 years old
- Small cracks appearing in tread or sidewall
- Frequent loss of air pressure
- Planning a long road trip
Monitor Closely If:
- Tread depth is 7-8/32"
- Tires are 4+ years old
- You notice vibration while driving
- Tires are frequently under-inflated
Tire Maintenance Tips
🔹 Check Pressure Monthly: Maintain proper PSI (usually 65-80 for RVs). Check when tires are cold.
🔹 Inspect Before Trips: Look for cracks, bulges, cuts, and foreign objects in tread.
🔹 Rotate Regularly: Every 6,000-8,000 miles to ensure even wear.
🔹 Use Tire Covers: Protect from UV damage when parked for extended periods.
🔹 Avoid Overloading: Know your RV's weight limits and tire load ratings.
🔹 Check Alignment: Have wheel alignment checked annually or after hitting potholes.
🔹 Know DOT Date: The 4-digit DOT code shows week and year of manufacture.
Tire Quality Comparison
| Quality Level | Price Range | Lifespan | Best For |
|---|---|---|---|
| Budget | $80-150 | 3-4 years | Light use, short trips |
| Mid-Range | $150-250 | 4-5 years | Regular travelers |
| Premium | $250-400+ | 5-6 years | Full-timers, long trips |
Recommendation: For RVs, investing in quality tires is crucial for safety. Premium tires often provide better tread life, handling, and blowout resistance.
