Hi all
New member to this portal and trying to find out if anyone has changed their "Motorhome" tyres for "Standard" commercial grade van tyres.
We have a 2015 Hymer B704 A Class motorhome and we find that on normal smooth roads she's a lovely comfortable ride, but on bumpy and bad condition roads we experience an extremely harsh ride. I've concluded this is down to the Conti Camper tyres - you never seem to get this harshness of ride in a normal type of van ie. Merc Sprinter/Fiat Ducato.
She's a bit better if we are fully laden, but still experience shocking vibrations through the entire chassis/body, so much so we have to take the Satnav out from its holder and a cup of tea in the cab is an absolute no no!!!!
We've just returned from doing the NC500 and I think we are lucky to have a motorhome left after experiencing the poorly maintained roads down the East Coast!!!
My idea is to therefore fit a set of normal van tyres and see how that changes things. has anyone done it????
