We're heading out to Lake Mohave for a 4 day weekend and plan on towing/launching a 23 foot Scarab (about 4,000 lbs) with our 38 Dutch Star DP from the back. I've seen it done and it appears to be a reasonable proposition if done carefully. Saw this at another (boat) forum as well.
Applogies if I'm inappropriately cutting in on this thread.

Well, just got off the phone with Amazon. They said they would give me a full refund or, if I want to keep the tires, a partial refund of $500. I took the $500.

Thanks Wolfe, you're right. Looks like October 2017. I'm likely going to look for some partial recompense however, I really need the tires and am inclined to keep them.
Thanks.

You are right Jim, it's a Newmar Dutch Star model number 3894. Thank you.
The Michelins are shot regardless of the age. There are cracks on all of them. I ordered the new tires and they came today. Will have them installed this weekend or next. Local tire guy I've been going to for years will do it for $240, including the balancing. Got another quote from a bigger shop nearby and they want $300.
Unfortunately, I ordered the new tires without much thought to the date code. The last 4 DOT numbers are P627. I'm assuming 2017 but am not sure. Regardless, I bought them on Amazon so, if I'm unhappy, there may be recourse.
Any thoughts?

Hi,
Mine is a 2001 38 Newmar/Dutchman pusher. Bought it late last year and not entirely sure what the model number is. Older Michelin 275/80/22.5 tires currently on it.

Im going to give these 275/80/22.5 Pirelli Driver IIs a shot as well. When shipping is taken into account, it looks like Amazon (prime) is the better price. They will deliver 6 to your door for $1,800 with 5% off if you use their credit card.

We'll be by ourselves Herman. To the extent that there might be a luanch service, I would head in that direction otherwise, it looks like I'll be giving it a shot.
