Goodyear Marathons

About 4 years ago I read about every tire thread on these forums trying to decide on which tires to purchase. I found the good year marathons on sale and despite the mixed reviews went ahead and purchased them. The build date is 0212, I had them installed March 2012. I store my Toy Hauler indoors, it has never sat outside in the sun for more then a week long camping trip. I check my tire pressure before every trip, I drive 60 to 65 MPH always. I don't cover my tires because they are stored indoors and never thought it to be necessary.

I went camping last week and had a blow out on my way. Called AAA, swapped it for a spare, hit the closest tire store and replaced it with a cheap tire until I got home. On my way back 3 days later blew another tire on the same side. Called AAA, headed to storage. Went to my storage yesterday and a 3rd tire was flat. In less then a week I lost 3 of these Goodyear Marathons. You would think goodyear would put out a top notch product. I use these for short trips 10 to 12 times a year.

This time around I am going with the Carlisle Radial RH 12 Ply which I found on Amazon for 119.00 each. Does anyone know of a better deal or tire for that matter?
