Alignment question

I posted this question under the class C forum but this forum may be more appropriate.

I will be buying new tires for my 2013 Winnebago View in the next few months. I’m anticipating that the tire dealer will want to perform an alignment. I’ve read that for an accurate alignment an RV should be loaded with enough weight to approximate the weight under which it normally operates. Does this seem right?

Your MH is newer than mine but from my experience I would opt for an alignment only if I had noticed odd wear on the front set.
On my last MH I put on Coopers all the way around and never had it aligned or worried about an alignment. No odd wear after I sold it 10 years later. On the new MH its been 3 years on a new set all the way around and have not noticed any odd inside, outside or tread wear.

No doubt they will suggest an alignment, maybe even all the way around. IMO I wouldn't get it unless I thought I needed it, not just solely based in their recommendation.

Alignment

Had my 2001 Minnie 427P aligned last spring after getting new tires, on my tire dealers suggestion. First time since owning it. For $58 I can't complain. It can't hurt.
