Richard, I changed over to the 305/75R24.5 and Newell was willing to rerate my front GAWR to 15,600# as I was told that the front axle was tire limited. I got the Michelins which were expensive but are very good tires. You are close enough on your front axle weights that you might want to consider that change next time you need tires. Since I live in my coach, my actual axle loadings are significantly higher than yours.

Thanks for data. Good to have some Series 60 data.

Anyone with a late '90 or early 2000 care to add information to the discussion?
