Having the 17.5" tires doesn't solve everything.

On our way from San Antonio to Augusta, GA two years ago, we lost the tread on a rear tire. Didn't notice it until DH was pulling into a site in AL for the night. No alerts from the factory installed Tire Monitors, so the GY seemed to maintain pressure. Luckily, it caused very little damage, only to the underbelly material.

The tires were only 4.5 years old. We switched to a different brand rather than just replace only the one tire.
