12,000 GVWR minus the pin @2400 lbs+ means only 10,600 on the axles. Any E rated tire would be more than sufficient. G's are overkill but why not.
YUP have said this a thousand times and all I get is people wanting to push a
Communist Chinese product when a GY ENDURANCE tire with WAY more capacity than needed is available. US Made and a STELLAR record.
Endurance hasn't been around long enough to have a Stellar Record!
You also need to update your thinking, Sailun is the tire with the stellar record.
I recently read that Goodyear no longer has a tire to meet RVIA specifications for larger 5th wheels.
For some rigs Sailun has become the only game in town.
Been trying to point this out ,those Endurance E rated just don't belong on very many fifth wheels. Great tire for utility trailers, light boat trailers etc.
Some persist on pushing the wrong tire for the application. The OP wants an F rated tire. IMO go the Sailun , air it down some. The price is great on the Sailun ,and as you say , they do have a STELLAR reputation .Its a bit an overkill , but the Sailun S637 ST 235/80/16 G rate @ 4080 lbs @ 110 psi is not far over on weight rating then an F rated tire. Plus the fact its the best tire he could put on that fifth wheel .
