RV and Tire Covers for 2019 Thor Quantum Class C Motorhome
Products Featured in This Question
Question:
I have a 2019 GR22 Quantum Thor motor home on a Ford E350 chassis. Tire size is LT225/75R16. Front has two and the rear tires are 4, dual tires on each side. I want to purchase a properly sized set of good wheel covers to protect the tires and wheels from the weather during storage. What size wheel covers should I purchase and is there anything special for the dual tires on the rear or do I simply put the wheel covers over the rear outside tires? Thanks in advance for answering my question. Im new to the RV world and want to protect my investment going forward.

Although you may be new to the world of RVs you are already making wise decisions. It is a very sensible investment to use protective tire covers on your 24-foot Thor Quantum Class C motor home. Your tires of size LT225/75R16 will last longer if protected from the harsh UV rays that will otherwise beat down on them all year long.
Tires in size LT225/75R16 have an overall diameter of about 29-1/4-inches so I recommend using covers that will fit a 30-inch tire. A little slack makes installation easier and does no harm. I suggest using the Adco Ultra covers, two of part # 290-3952. This will give you a total of four covers, two for the front tires and two for the outer rear tires. I recommend these white covers because they will absorb less heat and reflect more sun light than darker colors. All covers for 30-inch tires are shown on the linked page.
I also suggest a storage cover for the Thor itself. Adco SFS AquaShed cover # 290-52843 will give a comfortable fit and provide excellent protection against sun and moisture for your roof, AC unit, windows and doors.
