Where to buy G670's?

We are currently in Las Vegas, and heading towards Oklahoma in a few days. This summer, going to Alaska. Need to put some new tires on the rear before going to Alaska, and wondering where might be the least expensive to buy some Goodyear G670's. Running 275/70R22.5, load range H. I'm good with about anywhere between here an Oklahoma, as well as Oklahoma to the Canadian line. Anywhere in between is on the way!

Thanks

This probably won' help you but I bought mine at a large RV rally. Both Michelin & Goodyear had sales booths and by price Goodyear won hands down. But if you can hold out until a big rally you'll be dollars ahead.

Hi Ho: Be sure to check the date code on the Goodyear tires. They may be more than a year old when you buy them.

Best price will probably be at a Wingfoot truck tire center, but I was in Camping World today, and happened to notice that they have them. Not idea what their prices are. There's a new Lazy Days has a new facility in Tuscon, and thay may have them. Check internet, or cann Goodyear for a dealer near you.

When we bought our last set of Goodyear G670's we found both Camping World and the Wingfoot (Goodyear Commercial Tire Dealer) had exactly the same prices. After shopping around a bit we came across a local independant tire company that handled Goodyear RV tires. They were willing to sell them for $50.00 per tire less than either Wingfoot or Camping World.

My advice would be to check local independant tire dealers to see if they carry Goodyear. If they do get an exact out the door price and compare it to the Goodyear dealerconsiderably cheaper.s. I'll bet the independants are

Thanks for the responses! I haven't called any dealers yet, but looking online, seems tire prices have gone WAY up! First set of tires I bought for right at $440/tire. Looks like this go round may be closer to $700/tire! I am using a load range H instead of the ones that came with the coach, due to occasionally carrying a motorcycle. Besides, tire pressures are run at 85 psi, with a soft ride!

If you haven't bought em yet, Flying J off Cheyenne or Craig (can't remember) gave me the best price but it was 6 years ago.

Already left Vegas, but will keep Flying J in mind. I don't know if they kept their service centers when Pilot bought them, but could be a good source! Thanks!

Don't forget taxes on a purchase of that magnitude.

Depending on your route from Oklahome to Alaska, you may pass thru Montana. No sales tax.

Also, you may find the installation/disposal fees significantly different.

Take care,
Stu
