Sailun Tire Failure
It was bound to happen, and it did. Any experts want to weigh in? Luckily, no damage to fifth wheel or rim. 2 year old Sailun S637 , inflated to 100 psi.

I replaced the Goodyear Endurance 16's on my 2018 27-5L with Sailun 637's. I was advised by the tire shop that they were advised that 80 psi was the pressure for my application as they didn't have a stabilizer ban in the tire body. I actually have 90psi in all 5 sailuns. Most of my travel so far with this set-up has been the Texas-New Mexico-Arizona area. This summer should tell the story, but so far so good. I pull with a 2001 Ram 3500, quad cab, 19.5 tires on Alcoas, 6 spd with gear vendor overdrive, fass fuel system with 300 hp injectors, and 134 gal. fuel capacity. Mileage to date is 270k. The truck will cruise comfortably at 80 mph, but of course pulling the 5er, speed is held to 65-68 mph. The 5er will gross out around 13k, and we downsized from a 40 ft.Gulfstream Friendship that would run all day long at 70. But I would rather just take it easy with this set up. I may get some tire pressure monitors.
