New G614 Good Years

jimtoo · May 4, 2013

Well,,, I did it today. Went with 4 new Good Year G614's. I checked the manufacture date... ,, 1313,,

, I hope this is not a bad omen date.. I am not superstitious... but might cross a couple of things just in case.

We did seem to notice a little tire noise now,,, anyone else notice a change after new G614's ?

Congrats on the G614's Jim. Noise? Never. Even if I do hear a weird noise, I just turn up the radio.

No...no tire noise here.

The only noise I noticed was when the tread came off my two G614's.

The noise was me saying #$@$$T^^&*@!@#%@@#$@#@

How do you notice trailer tire noise from the tow vehicle? Maybe you got other issues...

I don't think so.. just had trailer bearings checked and repacked 2 days ago. Just noticed a little different sound coming back than what I did going down. Maybe it's just me dreaming a little. Will be driving truck tomorrow with out trailer and will check for noise then also.

We got 614's last week. I couldn't tell you if they are quieter or not since we have a 7.3 Ford.

I always thought they were pretty quiet so that is strange. Will be curious down the road if they stay that way. It will be interesting to see if you have one running hotter when you tow in high temps.

Jim... let's see, you had your old worn-out raggedy tires replaced with new 614's. And now you hear a "different" sound. Solution... just turn your hearing aid down and it will go away.

Are you guys going to Goshen? We are going to make a test trip or two for a day or so before we head to Goshen... we might try to come your way for an overnighter..... that is if... your at home and not at some La. casino...

And,, I sent my hearing aid in for repairs... so that is not the problem... it was not working anyway.

Hopefully your just hearing things, but I might be tempted to lift the coach and spin the wheels a few times & do a push pull to make sure the bearing job was done properly and you don't have a case of over or under tightening the castle nut on one of the wheels. Or maybe you have an infared to shoot the hubs on your next outing to compare temps.

Paid our dues at Lake Charles last month. Would enjoy a couple of nights and will PM suggestions. Had to pass on Goshen in favor of attempts to get back into manageable shape. Still up to shorter week or so trip, rather than 6-8 weeks.
