What tires should I consider for a 1984 Airstream MH? I just bought 
this unit and it has been sitting for 3 years in the AZ heat. The oem 
tire size is listed as 8Rx19.5D.  The Rim size is listed as 
19.5x6.00. The coach is 2000 miles away, so I can't check what is on 
there now. 

From the digging I've done, I think I will need Bridgestone R187 size 
8R19.5 Load Range F if I want to replace the existing tires.

The Michelins would be 225/70R19.5 XRV load range F.  

Can anyone confirm that? Are the michelins worth the extra cost? Are 
there better alternatives avaialble?

Any help is appreciated, Thanks
Jim
