Sailun 637


Just for info I ordered set SAILUN 637 G load tires for friend and this size is almost identical in diameter size of the GOODYEAR 614. 30.7 inches so good option to consider

I just got off the phone with someone about these tires and he told me that these are from China (he said all ST's are from China or out of the country) and that yes, the Goodyear G614 are American. He said these were 10 ply compared to GY 14 ply. They both had a five year warranty on them. It's hard to resist the price of these compared to the Goodyears, I'll tell ya that.
Not sure I can do it though.
Anyone else have any info on the Sailuns?
I can assure you the Sailun 637 is 14 ply and in my opinion much stiffer and thicker sidewall than the GY 614. I've installed both and the 637 tires are much more difficult to mount due to sidewalll stiffness
Mounting tires on the rims

You are correct, I was just coming back to change my mistake. Thank you. They are 14 ply.
Are you saying they are harder to mount to the rim? Or to the trailer?
I've been researching tires for weeks now and think I'm finally comfortable with the Sailuns. I would be ordering the Sailuns with the rims since I believe my trailer only has the 80 psi and would just sell the other tires/wheels together. Regardless, if the Sailuns don't work out, then I'll at least be set for any other tire at the 110 psi.
Again, are you saying that they are harder to mount on the rim, or the trailer itself? My husband will be mounting them on the trailer and I would like to know how many swear words I'll be hearing if that's the case. Thanks
