Yes some say 4 years, some say more, some say less.
I'll go 5 years max on my RV. I don't worry to much about it on my car trailers or my Semi trailers. But I wont recap a older casing.
Just my 2cents

Did someone hijack your computer. You already know that for 95-99 percent of RV's will age out their RV tires way before they wear them out. Maybe a grandson or daughter that does not know to capitalize the first word in a sentence, how to spell searches and use however instead of but? Chris

This guy is just playing games. He posted the exact same question on Forest River Forums at 3 pm today.
He is a professional and professes to know a lot about tires. Pretty sure you know the answer.
Here are two posts, the first ones in goggle.

Yes, I know tires can "age-out" before they wear-out". I am asking the question to try and learn if others know this and if some do, what are the numbers. IMO 95-99% of RVs will age out their tires BUT I am having a problem with a supposed"expert" who does not appear to know much about RVs but has decided to claim that tires should never have structural problems before they wear out. I need some numbers to counter his position. If I received say 20 replies that agreed with the age out first and one or none disagreeing, I believe it would give me some strong ammunition.
RE my typing issues. I can only apologize and claim lack of sleep due to returning from Calif on the "Red Eye" flight yesterday. I will endeavor to do better in the future and run the grammar/spellcheck feature more religiously in the future.
My spelling & grammar software check wants to change "hijack" to "hijacks" so maybe technology isn't 100% reliable
My father in law who is old school, and has had RV's since forever told me that 7 years is the limit. I think , I will do maybe 5 -6 years, we never go that far with the coach. UV is the killer on these. I keep mine stored, sitting on boards, and it is always under roof and not exposed to sunlight when not in use.

I think you can get an idea of "tire" questions including how long to keep them on by doing a search here on the topic or checking the bottom of the page for similar threads. Tires topics are a dime a dozen on this site and a simple search will give you answer that you are looking for. If you want to run a survey ask the mods if they would be willing to run one for you.
