hi Jim
I bought 8R-19.5 bridgestone R187 My dealer sells both bridgestone and michelan and he told me, if this was his coach, bridgestones would be what he would use. the cost was $283. ea. mounted balanced and old tire disposal.
hope those prints work for you, and good luck with your new coach.

Tire advice is best taken from a person with the same or similar chassis. I love my Bridgestones, but at least one Barthmobiler hated them. His chassis was a Spartan vs my Pee Thirty-something.

I put Bridgestones on my p30 when I got it and have never had a problem of any kind. I run 90 pounds instead of the 65 on the plate. Rated for 115 lbs, so no problem there.

Kenny, is yours a 6-speed or a 4-speed?
