New Tires!!

After the bad experiences with a certain brand of tire, super pumped with her new shoes! After reading here and other reviews went with the Sailun S637. For the first time, the 5vr looks like it actually has tires on it that were meant for a trailer this big! No more white knuckles on those cross-country trips! Thanks for all of the feedback and posts!

    Probably just my imagination but in my first 1,500 miles it seemed to tow better with this brand of tire!

    Good choice on the Sailun tires, now to the wheels, those look like the T03 wheels noted to have cracked spokes. They are only rated to 3580 in the 8 lug model. Inspect the spokes frequently.

    Glad you are more secure. RVing shouldn’t be “white knuckling” whether real or imagined.
