Anyone with a Gillig chassis go up in tire size to 295s and if so how do you like them? Just put 6 brand new Bridgestone Ecopia R283a's on with new Monroe shocks and so far the ride has greatly improved! Thanks

Jesse,

Love to keep in touch with you, we also have a 97 Intrigue, we kept with the Toyota tires 165s I think and we just ordered the road king shocks that should be here in a week or so. We still have on the original shocks so it should ride muc b better when we are finished.

Mike,

Good to hear from another 97 Intrigue owner! Our shocks were also originals and pretty much toast, I figured it was about time to change them with the new tire install and I am very glad we did. Let us know how those new road kings work out, I am sure your going to love the improvement in ride quality. Perform any other major repair or work on yours recently? Own it since new?
