Unfortunately the same reports over on the Montana forum , tread separation , with the Vietnam made Sailuns .
Apparently though, the new Montana fifth wheels are coming out with the China made Sailun tires . They either have a source from China , that some distributors do not, or had a stock pile of them. Sounds like any of the Sailuns right now coming from Walmart, Simpletire etc are Vietnam made .
If I were in the market for another set , I would search out China made . Another tire to look at is the G rated Hankook H31 that was mentioned over on the General RVing Issues , a new tire on the market ,fairly reasonable price . Probably prove out to be a quality RV tire .
