TAKING CARE OF YOUR RV  —- Tires (care & safety) —- One of the most important things you can do for your RV is to take care of your tires.  ( It is best for performance and safety to use tires designed for RV use only!)–Because many units are stored outside in all types of weather conditions; you need to be aware of a  few key points of RV  storage.  It is best to park the RV on gravel or  a raised surface.  This  will prevent the tires from setting in water or muddy wet ground.  Tires in wet comditions will crack on the surface and  create safety hazzards, over a short period of time.  The summer  sun will also damage your RV tires if covers are not installed, when not in use. ( Don`t forget to cover the spare, also!)  Also, keep your tire gauge handy and check the tire inflation on a regular basis; to the pressure recommendations printed on the sidewall of the tires.  This will keep your RV tires giving you the performance, safety and  treadware all year round! —- We`ll talk again, soon.
