Outdated-tires
« on: July 22, 2014, 10:41:12 AM »
Okay, so I just assembled the device needed for more conveniently adding air to Monty Rae's tires using the engine compressor, right?

Well it would seem I haven't even has occasion to use it yet and it's already on the verge of being rendered useless.  Have a gander at what your next set of tires might look like:

Might make for quite a change in the overall appearance of new motorhomes some day soon.

Maybe make the Jumbo single rears more attractive without the blow out potential and the end of tire rot as we know it. Wonder how they would be engineered for each load range?
