My manual (for a coach almost as old as mine) talks about rotating tires to prevent "cupping". My DRIVE tires (Duals on a single axle) are slightly bigger than the STEER tires with a much more aggressive TREAD.
What are your thoughts on running 6 identical tires vs. putting more aggressive traction tires on the rear?
Thank you for your thoughts!

So I try to find what they call all position tires. I have found Toyos to be good quality for the money.
Do you know what size tire your coach needs? I am guessing an 82 uses the same tire all the way around. You will just need to pay attention to the load rating to make sure it matches the axle weights.
If you have not noticed, the Newell crowd goes by the coach number, which is the last 3 or 4 numbers of the vin, this helps identify your coach and the gurus will be better able to assist you.
