Sailun tires versus Michelin
I have to make a choice here, and both seem like huge overkill, but I am looking for opinions. Sailun tires are S637 235/85/16 They carry a lot more, 3750 at 110 psi compared to Michelin LT XPS ...

They seem to be closer in size to the original Marathons. A better choice perhaps?
Yes but compare price of the Bridgestone Duravis R250. Just at good or better for less money normally. I ran Ribs for 6.5 years and now R250's for three years.
Another choice is the Duravis R500, which has a two ply poly carass.
