8000 miles and 15 months use and they seem just fine for me. One handed highway driving. Btw any tire that is a major brand, properly balanced and on a wheel aligned, weight balanced coach would work IMHO. Winnie just happened to use Goodyear on my coach. Works for me.

G670's on my coach for over 28,000 and no problems. Just keep them at the right pressure.

OK..so far.Yeah, 'RIVERING'. Many feel that Goodyear G670's tread pattern around the outermost edge was NOT a good way to build a tire that is being steered/turned at high speeds etc. Thus there appears, after time, 'rivers' or lines in the tread pattern that go fully around the tire that may worsen and ultimately fail. Same G-670 tire always running straight and true on the rear axle may be just fine. G-670's factory rubber formulation was meant to combat 'dry-rot' and ozone damage, but the tread pattern makes it maybe NOT an all purpose tire. Mine sure ride nice. One Web-page, Monaco-Owners, has had many comments on the tire recently. Lately, Michelin XZA-2 or similar come up frequently as the 'GO-TO' choice for the 40-foot plus rigs. TOM

chastho wrote:Some of them have a problem with rivering on one edge, mine started at a little over 20k miles. I moved them to the rear and they are still wearing pretty fast so we will see how long they last. We are having the same problem with 2 of our G670 tires, 1 front and 1 rear, but it started at about 10K miles. Will switch to Toyo tires as soon as these prematurely wear out. Have never had a problem with any "truck" tire, only the ones built for the softer RV ride. If it says RV on the sidewll, run the other way and save our money.
