New Jayco owner

My name is Scott, I will be picking up our new Jayco tomorrow. We will be taking our maiden voyage Saturday. I've done some type of camping for most of my life, everything from my parents pop up to backpacking parts of the Appalachian trail. Looking forward to using our new fifth wheel and learning from this group as much as possible.

Just curious...what model are you getting? You might want to list the the RV (model) and TV (tow vehicle) in your signature.

It's a Jayco 29.5 BHDS, we will be pulling it with a Silverado 2500HD gas.

Any recommendations for replacement tires? Currently they are the original 15" towmax load range D. Is it possible to go to load range E without changing wheels? We are doing a mid summer trip down south and the last thing I want to do is change a flat on the side of the highway, been there done that with my boat trailer.

Thanks
