Tire recommendations

LonesomeRoad

I have a T@B 320S BD on order for delivery in April. First time ever owning or towing an RV. Our TV will be  2018 Ford Flex AWD that has a trailer package/tranny cooler. I run Blizzaks on it for winter months, but need to put on new non-winter tires in the spring and am looking for some general guidelines or specific recommendations taking into account that we'll be towing the T@B. While we'll likely be doing some boondocking with it, I don't think we'll do anything radical. Travel will be in the midwest and out west (Rockies/Tetons?).

Thanks in advance!

Your best bet to get what you want is to use the Tire Rack tire selector tool. It will allow you to select a summer only tire and prioritize the conditions that you might care about, off road capability, rock, gravel or mud driving, wear, price, comfort etc. Guessing for you it recommends a Yoko Geolander A/T and since you like the Bzaks (they are great!) you already know how good the Yoko tires are. Other brands that would be considered by someone running Bzak are Conti, Michelin....there are scads of other choices and everyone will have an opinion. You don't mention it but hopefully you are keeping those snows mounted on a spare set of wheels? Annual removal and replacement is a bead wrecker...if you are going to spend the money to run good tires, buy an extra set of rims and keep them mounted year round. CL is your friend. It's often possible to get 4 alloy wheels for$50.00 each...or less.

Thanks for the good thinking. I usually do keep 2 sets of rims, but have not done so on this vehicle. This next changeover will likely put me down that path though. Not familiar with the Geolander, but will definitely check those out.
