Rotating TM Tires

[Redtail Cruiser]

Art, I like the idea of only replacing one tire a year. Street side first to save the plumbing from a blow-out, then curb side and then spare last. Much better to spread the cost out, than to spend $300+ all at once. I would only worry that a flat tire might mean your putting on a 5 to 6 year old spare, but that's why we have AAA-RV.

I agree, there is that risk. My thought will most likely change as time approaches and I become chicken.

I do hate being on the side of the road. I somehow on the last two camper got it worked out. But I think it was because they both had old spares and newer travel tires.

Has anyone priced the 15 inch alloy wheel? How hard are they to come by used?

[tentcamper]

My tire shop told me they would be about $80 each plus $10 for lug nuts. Steel would be about 35.

I have seen them on CL for about $50 each

I have two of the alloy wheels extra, if you are interested pm me. 6 bolt 15 inch

I must confess that I'm a bit baffled by the "one tire at a time" idea. Isn't that (about) the same money over the same period of time as "all at once"?

...in giving this further thought, you would probably end up paying " more" buying tires one at a time. If you buy all three today for $300, your done for three or four years; however if you buy one for $100 today, you are probably going to spend more for that same tire next year and then even more the very next year.
Now you've spent about $325, instead of $300.

moaboy, you sent me a PM but you are setup not to recive PM's. CL stands for CraigsList.com

Thanks but odd as I have received other PMs.
Will check into it.

Some tire manufacturers will provide a rebate when you buy two or four tires at the same time, so buying them all at the same time might actually be cheaper.

I've always seen the rebate for 4 tires
