I am hearing lots of good things about Sailun, even thought they are made in China. But, what about Walmart for auto service? Seems like there could be a better place to buy tires.
I'm more tempted to go with Goodyear due to the USA made and reputable tire service departments.
Discount Tire is a good place to buy! Can't beat a perfect track record on the ENDURANCE.
Certainly not PERFECT TRACK RECORD. I had an endurance blow out on me and cause about $1,300 worth of damage to the underside and sheet metal of my fifth wheel. Tread came completely off and beat the dickens out of my trailer. Discount Tire swapped it out, but didn't save the tire for a claim with Goodyear. Fortunately I had taken pictures showing the remains and I salvaged the tread for more photos. In the end, Goodyear (at the insistence of Discount Tire) paid for the tire and the $1,300 in damages to the trailer.
I kept Endurance on that trailer (16,500 pounds) but never trusted them fully and I invested in a TMPS system.
Now on a smaller fifth wheel I have Carlisle and stepped up a load range.
