Only FastEagle could come up with such a ridiculous non-valued added post on tires that he knows little to nothing about....Thank goodness they didn't mimic Carlisle tires, or some of the China made, "names have been changed to protect the guilty" tires...:R

Chris, guess he didn't notice the differences in the two tires.....Research is a great thing.

Knock-off? I do not think so. Deeper tread and an inch larger in diameter, I would not call that a knock-off. Gladialor makes a similar all steel LRG tire to the Sailun. These two are built to standard LT235/85R16 dimension where as the GY G614 is not. Chris

I got mine from NTB in houston.

Where can you buy them?

There are distribution centers in quite a few places in the US...I googled it and first one I came up with was "Simple Tire.com"......you could purchase 4 tires for $611.98, order them and pay shipping...I think "Tire Kingdom" also carries them.....

Where can you buy them?

Have them on my rig. little over a year old, about 8ooo miles so far. My unit weighs 17,600. Have not had a single issue with them. they still look new. Have run over curbs several times, not cuts or bruising to be seen on them. Hold pressure well, just last month is the first time I had to add any air, less than 5 psi to top them off. Check them at every stop, and they run cooler than any other tire I have had on any of my other rv's. I would recommend them.

They are a G614 knock-off and should mimic the reliability of the G614.

Some claim the Good Year G rated and Sailun are on par, but Good year will pay for damage to the trailer for blow outs and tread separation. It appears one gets and insurance policy with the Good Year tires if that is true. This a claim and should be verified.

Assuming Goodyear pays and Sailun doesn't. I still went with Sailuns.
I have insurance in case I need it. I can't see paying $100.00 more per tire additional for more insurance just in case.
I was looking to buy tires not more insurance.

Couldn't have said it better, some will come back with the claim that your insurance rates will go up. I turned in a couple claims in a short period of time, the only thing that happened was a slight raise in my deductible , for a year or two. No raise in rates . The occasional claim with my Insurance company I have never experienced a increase in rates. Same company for nearly 45 years.

There is a lot of things I can do with $400.00 other then as you said buying more insurance.

Sailuns will be replacing my current G614's when the time comes.

I just replaced my 7 year old GY tires with the Sailun tires based on what others have said about them. I've done a lot of Google searches and haven't found anything negative about them. They seem like good tires and I already pay for insurance to cover any damages I would incur should I have a blow out.
