Sorry to hear about your tire issues. I purchased a new-to-me 2006 2720SL last July and after reading about tire issues and other problems on the forum, decided to install a factory lift kit and go to 15" wheels and tires. Even though the tires looked brand new (the unit was only used three time and garaged due to the death of the owner's husband after using on three short trips), I wanted more rubber on the road. After installing the lift kit in May, finally found a tire guy in the area that would help me. He ordered the exact wheels that I wanted and I went with his tire recommendation. We went with metal stems and kept checking the tire pressure along the way.

I'm pleased to report that we went from D.C. to Yellowstone via a family reunion in NE on the way out without any tire problems. Came back through CO and even though there we other minor issues with the TM, pleased at how easy it was to tow. Have you considered going to a 15" tire?
