Are you saying you went from a G to an E tire on the same RV? Or did the RV originally come with E's?

E tires I would go with Me Again's recommendations.

Say what? The tires I listed above are all Load Range G tires, rated to 3750 each.

I know I should have been more clear. I should have said "if buying E tires I would go with Me Again's recommendations" better? :B

I went from the factory 16 GY G's on our MS after 5 years and zero problems to GY H's and 17.5" Alcoa wheels from trailertiresandwheels.com. they were shipped to me mounted and properly balanced. Call Scott he is great to deal with.

Sold the tires, wheels and spare for $1,000 on CL.

So tell us more about the Rib that failed. How old and how many miles? Do you have a TPMS? Was is a run flat failure or a sudden failure? Inquiring minds want to know! Chris

I have a set of Sailun S637 going on Sunday. I kicked around the Goodyears, but the price is good ($1400 for 7 tires installed) and they hold the ISO 9001 and US DOT Certificates... The tire size for my trailer (235/85R16) is a steel encased tire (60lbs/tire) and 3750lbs rating per tire. Good for my 7k axles.
Of course, all that information was learned from folks on the forums.

Who make heavy duty tire in size 16 ,load capacity over 3500.

If you are talking about for a trailer:

1. Goodyear G614 rated to 3750
2. Sailun S637
3. Geostar G574
4. Gladiator: QR35-TR(AS) Trailer Note: Most be (AS) for all steel

These are all steel ply carcass offerings rated to 3750.

Are you talking about tires for your trailer or truck. Goodyear make a "G" rated trailer time for 16" wheels. CW stocks them for about $350 each. Not sure they are worth the price. If your rig came with "E" rated tires, you probably don't need go to any higher than that, unless your just looking for extra peace of mind. $tronger tires will not change your legal GVW, even if you swap out your axles and wheels to accommodate the higher ratings.
