Started prepping our 5th wheel to head out for a month. It has been in storage for a year. I checked the tire pressure and the Michelin XPS RIBS I bought a few years ago had only lost 4 PSI each since our last trip.
Previous tire sets would show a loss of up to 20 pounds when sitting for less than 6 months.
Makes me happy that I spent the extra money and bought the Michelins.

That's good to know. We were referred to the XPS's when we weighted at Spring rally. Guess you answered our questions. Thanks

That is what we use on our Teton X6. Great tires. We have used them 3 years now. Never lost air.

What Michelins do you have? Load range, speed rating, size, etc?

So they are 16 inch load range E tires (3,042 lbs max @ 80 psi). Unless there are some other XPS Ribs that I can't find.
