They may be my next tires for my truck.
It helps that a dealer is right here in town within rock throwing distance.
Edit add: We finally got some rain. North Texas, Oklahoma, and some of Kansas looked scorched last week. 18 wheelers hauling hay north on I-45 between Houston and Dallas.

I'm only going to buy one last set of tires, so right now the GOODYEAR G114 215 /75 R17.5 135 H BSW is leading the list. After they wear out or age out.. I'm done..

I’m on about the same program. But if my health holds out I could be talked into a Class C.

The Landmark came with 17.5” wheels.
I should be shopping for 1 alloy wheel for the spare.

I just can’t see the investment going to 17.5 tires and wheels . My last set of 14 ply tires ran 7 years.l cost me about $650..
New set just cost me about $820.. should easily see 5 to 7 years ..
If I did cut one of my 16 inch tires I know I can find something to put on in a pinch no matter what small town I might be near..
With the 17.5 tires that might be an issue in a small town ..
I did some looking at the 17.5 whales and tires and for me to replace all five it would be an investment of $2500 or more..
At my age I figure this set and maybe one more and my RVing days will be done..
I’m 68..

I doubt you’ll get that much for them, that’s almost new price for most trailer wheels. I think I paid $90 each for mine when I upgraded to gain psi rating. Granted that was several years ago and I think they’re around $130 now. I just traded mine in when I bought the tires. If I remember correctly, they gave me $40 each for them. You might be able to get $60-75.

Dang, prices on 4400 lb wheels is up there. Mine are rated for 3750 and are still $140 each. I just looked up some comparable 4400 lb wheels, the cheapest I found was $185. I guess you might be able to get $100 each. I always figure 50%.

The Sendel TO2 15x6 rims on my trailer are $140 to $170 depending on retailer. On used thing like that I'd ask 70 to 75% of new and take 50% if they don't get any interest.

If you keep the steel wheel spare I'd suggest test fitting it on your rv especially using the lug nuts. I found out the lug nuts used on the alloy wheels won't tighten up on the steel wheel needed a seperate set for the spare, fortunately I found this while doing maintenance & not along side the road somewhere.

I sold mine, tires & wheels, for $150 each.
The guy that bought them was in a real bind. Headed cross country to a new job, had a blowout & before he could get shut down the second tire blew, the rv dropped down ruining both wheels & nothing near for replacements. He was thrilled with the price.
