| Description of the problem | Coke tire - this is a new forest river shasta airflyte travel trailer which has whitewall coker passenger tires on it. I believe this is the manufacture link https://www. Cokertire. Com/p225-75r15-coker-classic-2-3-4-whitewall. Html the tires were provided by shasta as a stock option. The tires have inadequate clearance and as a result are rubbing inside the wheel well bother laterally and vertically. I notified my dealer and warranty work was completed on my suspension to improve clearance.* nothing has been done in regards to the tires. This is a serious safety concern. Visible rubbing in is the top of the wheel well. Tire size = st225/75r15d designed for passenger cars. The stickers on the side of my camper informs me to inflate the coker tire to 35 psi and tire itself indicates 35psi maximum inflation. (i know of folks in the shasta camper club with a different sticker of 65psi. Their campers were manufactured before mine. They have not been notified to change the psi. We have no idea who has the correct information as the company is not openly communicating. Potentially we are both wrong.) i consider this situation to be a serious safety concern which forest river is not taking seriously. There will be a total of 1,941 units built and they will all have the same ¿ |
