A reminder to everyone to check tires

I was getting the camper ready for our Texas trip leaving on Friday and saw what appears to be the tread separating from the tire on my Goodyears, They are 5 years old and already I replaced 2 last fall while on a trip and I knew it was getting time to change the other, just glad I saw this before our trip. I called Discount tire and all they carry is Carlisle Trl tires. As with any tires I have seen bad and good comments, so time shall tell. Anyone have experience with this tire brand. I have 2 towmax on the other side because that was all that store had. I guess Ill be running a good test on the 2 different brands of tires.

Longhauler, I have no comments pertaining to your question. My only two comments are
1) Thanks for the reminder. As a newbie to camping, reminders are life savers.
2) May I, at some point, be blessed with the opportunity to put as many days and miles on a camper as you do.
Enjoy your upcoming season.

I put Carlise on two years ago hold ing up well. They said at the time they were redesigned. Tow _max was on there prior blow out less than a 100 miles from the tire store. a year later another tread came off and took out the rear tire did 7000.00 worth of damage
