Carlisles ST's? Straight Up, Yes or No?
Replacing tires on 30' Cardinal tomorrow. Had decided on Cooper LT's. Having 2nd thoughts and really in a dilemma. Have heard so many horror stories about Carlisle, but also hear they have cleaned up ...

I have em. Bought a set of 4 two years ago now and I'm very pleased with them so far. Wearing very well, and ride improved greatly also. They are the 15in load range E radial RH. I'm very, very OCD with my tires though. I check pressures, wear, keep em covered, and visually inspect them religiously. Rig stays under shelter when not in use too. I too heard and read of the Carlisle reputation and failures. But, these are completely new design and so far are just as good (or maybe even slightly better) than the Maxxis I ran before on another set up. And that was a great tire too. For the price and availability (needed tires very quickly) I had to try em. Just FYI my rig is 32ft 5er that weighs in around 9500-10,000# loaded and ready to go. I say they are worth a try! That's my 2 cents.
