I just changed the tires on my TH to Load Boss 235x85x16 G rated, judging from how little weight it took to balance them I have a feeling that they will serve me well. These are still a ST tire but are speed rated for 100 mph and 14 ply. I bought them from Discount Tire and considering the price was only 1100 for the 6 tires including balancing and tax they are worth trying. I am not sure where I will end up at for pressure since they are 110 lb max and I will only have about 2500lbs on each tire. TH is 19000. I am going to start at 90 psi and go from there.

Have you heard the saying "you get what you pay for". :) I will be interested to hear how these do over time.

Sweet, theres no returning to ST now. Put 10K on my Duravis tires the 1st year. No issues!

Yeah, nice rig. I went with another option, Toyo AT with Tuff Duty, new from them, check them out, very similar appearance to Duravis, the Cyclone is noticeably calmer towing, like its on rails. I have to figure braking and emergency maneuvering adhesion has got to be hugely improved with any of the good LT's as well. I'll take some pics when home in a couple weeks.

Please keep this thread going. I'd love to know how well they work for you.

It just seems so "common sense" to go this route. Its my plan for the next round of trailer tires.

Nice rig!

Same tire I'm running, I love um! Got 2 1/2 years out of a set of maxis 15" lr e before I bubbled 5 out of the six. 2 seasons on the 16" bridgestone r250's and they still look new. You will be pleased :C

This is what it takes to get a "man card" in the U.S.A.?

We're doomed...

Who would've thought, unbelievable... lmao

Good move, and nice rig, enjoy...
