[Wabs]

Hi all,,quick question,does anyone have any experience with Cross Climates on MHs? I have had them in the past on the car and quite impressed,,hence the question for MHs,,all advice gratefully welcome,,( good and bad),,cheers.

Are they just the same as all season?

 

[Lenny HB]

Use the search facility quite a few Funsters have then. Some have had problems with sidewalls cracking after only a year or so.

 

[Wabs]

Yep they are

 

[M-J]

Yep they are

In that case I can’t think of a better choice, in fact I have a full set of all season tyres on order. (Toyo observe)

Those are winter tyres, I have them.

I thought that but the tyre place I ordered from said they were listed as all season. Either way, still going for them.

I have seen that toyo describe them as a winter tyre on their website.

 

[Lenny HB]

Well I like them.

You would think a winter tyre would just be classed as all season as they don’t need special features to work in summer like they do for winter especially on a van or MH.

The performance degrades with heat they work best below 8 deg.

But I would assume not enough to make a difference on a long heavy vehicle. Not exactly doing laps of silverstone.

Specifically, the following site is for, Shhhhh! caravans but it works for motorhomes.
All you have to do is get the axle weights.

Don't be surprised if the figures appear shockingly low, but I've used them and it makes no difference to the MPG but makes for a comfortable ride.

I’ve had full winter Tyres on for 4 years now no problem

 

[Phill D]

Emmit it gives me 74 psi rear and 60 psi front which is quite close to what i had on my conti tyres

Not being funny but can you put 74 in the Toyo's.
My mate had a Savannah from new and he was given figures similar but the tyre had a Max of 65psi on the side.

i think the max psi on the side wall is for the US market like conti tyres and is not followed in the UK as conti's go to 80psi on their chart even though on the wall its 69psi.
