Question:
We have a 2016 38ft Grand Design Reflection. The rear tire on the passenger side is wearing significantly more than the rest of the tires. What could be causing this?
asked by: Gail C
Helpful Expert Reply:
The most general causes of a tire wearing on one side faster than the others could be as simple as inflation not being consistent across both side, front to back and side to side or it could be a bit more involved such as a bent spindle. I recommend checking and replacing any worn or damaged suspension components first. For a replacement 205/75-15, I recommend the Provider ST205/75R15 Radial Trailer Tire part # TTWTRTM2057515C. A great way to keep up to date on real time pressure is with a TMPS like the TireMinder A1AS TPMS for RVs and Trailers part # TM49FR.
