What tire covers do you recommend? I’m in Arizona with no shade and folks say tire covers are a must-use…just not sure what type is best. I’ve seen black vinyl, white cloth, yada, yada. I’m a newbie to RV’ing so any input is much appreciated.

If you drive your RV then investing in tire covers is a joke. If you plan to park in one spot for extended period of times then you might want to invest in covers. My favorite covers are the ones that are custom built out of the black mesh material, they roll up small and fit perfectly. If you’re on a budget then just go to Camping World or order anything on Amazon.

One of the best ways to stay on top of your tire pressures 24/7 is with a TPMS (tire pressure monitoring system) which gives you real time pressures & temperature on your dash. I use one from TST but everyone has their favorites.
