Again read above. I want soft tires. If I can get 5,000 miles out of them I am fine with that. I just dont want to buy a tire that is rock hard for a recreational vehicle. I have another set of wheels/tires for the car but they are 16's. Before I got the 71 I had planned on switching between them as necessary. If I went on Power tour with the 91 I would run the 16's because they are a higher tread wear so I didnt burn out the 17's.

I know I am complicating things from what you told me before but things have changed and from what I read on tire rack the Eagles got good reviews.
I wish I had money to burn by buying tires and trying multiple brands/versions and see what I like the best.

Then you need to buy 4. You really shouldn't mix markedly different tire types.

How about something like the Toyo Proxes R888?
