Say fellow RV'rs I was thinking these tires sure look good I know that they are rather old but what the heck They have plenty of Tread on them. The a friend sent me this video which I would like share with fellow Clipper owners. After watching it just one time I said "Jer But Tires!!!! If you have Tires you also might want to check out this video. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=okVCwoqxMgI

I had 2 tires blow but not at once. I bought a clipper with new rubber with only a few hundred miles on but........... they were 8 or 10 years old. The mechanic blew one & I blew one on the rear which did some serious damage. 50 mph on the freeway. I'll tell you one thing - that stock jack will not jack up the ass end! Radials will beat up your rig, the only thing I didn't take out was the propane line.

I have radials up front & regular tires aft. I'll change them in a couple of years. I take this thing out every two weeks but I ain't having a blow out on the freeway in the mountains again.
