So I got an estimate from Schwabs for 2 different HT tires.

Both brands are Load Range E, 10 ply Steel Belted with fabric sidewalls.

First is the Toyo Open Country HT, 60k mile warranty. Definitely would be a great tire, they are quiet, and long lasting.

Second is the Sailun Terramax HT, 40k mile warranty, I have no experience with this type of tire, he did say they would be noisier than the Toyos.

The Toyos are $1500, the Sailun Terramax are less than $900. That is out the door.

Is road noise really a factor when considering a tire for a GMC MH?

I don't see us putting more than 3k miles on this coach per year, so am not going to wear out the tire before its useful life is up.

The tires had very similar tread, the Terramax was a little more blocky closer to the sidewall, and made in China

I welcome any comments.
