I really thought our Coach rode well and was reasonably quiet.
Our tires, BFG V Steel, (Feb 2001) had no cracking or other visible wear and less than 6000 miles on them, 5200 of those miles we put on since getting the Coach last September. Being concerned about their age and wanting to reduce the possibility of having problems on the road, we had Jeff Sirum install new Cooper ARM II LRE tires and it is like driving a different Coach. Marked difference in the way the Coach rides. The old tires must have been hardened through age or new technology in tires makes for a much softer, quiet ride. Absolutely no Road noise, seems to be glued to the road.
Real pleased.
