I just priced 11R 24.5 tires from my local dealer.
Michelin XZE2 H rated $699.38
same tire using Advantage program $631.97
Good year from same tire dealer $629.00
All prices mounted and balanced.
I am not aware of anyone who makes a RV specific tire in the 11R 24.5 size.

I would go with the Michelin. I had problems with my 07 MH with Goodyear tires. Goodyear was having odd ball wear problems so I found out with their MH tires, GL 70s or something like that. The 11Rs might be OK. But with no more price difference than a few dollars Michelin is the one. My 11R 24.5 Goodrich were about $100.00 less and they are American made. I was told that Michelin owned Goodridch.

Its just like Christmas!! I got the new Michelin 11R24.5 XZE2H tires installed today. The tire build date was March 26, 2014!!! (They were still warm!!!! B-) )
I used the Michelin Advantage program through FMCA.
I chose to have the balance beads installed. They are in a paper bag that they just throw in the tire. I got a lot of wobble for the first 5 miles but once the bags broke up and the beads distributed properly they smoothed out.
The tire dealer's quote was $5595.00 mounted, balanced, and new stems included.
The price through FMCA is $5358.00 all taxes included if Michelin charges my card for what they indicated they would. FMCA quoted the tire price NOT INCLUDING state sales tax.
