Several of the local school districts use Ohtsu tires.
From all that I have heard they are a good tire at an affordable price.
Will they go as far as premium tires?
Probably not.
But in RV applications the tire is going to die of old age long before the tread is worn off.

Joe I couldn't find an Ohtsu R2400 anywhere.
I did find a listing for an R 1200 that looks like a pretty good tire and the only 12.00 R- 22.5 on their list.
