Road King Tires - Rrrgh
Only 1.5 yrs / 8,000 miles and 3 tires ruined. Big blister appear on sidewall then they blow. What to do? Anyone have suggestion on a better tire? Want to replace all of them. Will deal with warranty...

Only tires I have ever had fail....including your so=called "China Bombs" are Goodyear. My best friend is in the excavating business and every equipment trailer tire he has gotten in 10 years was made in China and no higher failure rate then US made. It depends on use factors more then where they are made.
Big difference in an equipment trailer and a 5th. wheel...What GY failed?...the one's made in China? Marathons? or the GY G614? Which is made in Kansas, (US made)...
We're comparing tires on heavy to heavier 5th wheels, not "trailer tires" that haul equipment...completely different set up....but doesn't matter....
If I'm going with a G rated tire, I'd go G614's, or go with the Sailun S637, (again, I think that is the number)...it'll be a tire I will compare with the G614 when I replace my 5er's tires.
It is the 637---
