Re: [VAC] Tires



It is a possibility that the  tires used on your rig are like the ones on 
mine-7.00X15's, not a popular tire size these days.

I got two Goodyear Rib's for about $70 each.  Check the date of manufacture 
code on the sidewall.  It starts with "DOT..." and there should be several 
numbers following.  The first three numbers are the week of manufacture and 
the last is the year. For example; "DOT KMPG 459."  This means the tire was 
manufactured in the 45th week of 1999.  Watch out for tires that may have 
been sitting around in some warehouse for a couple of years.
