Saliun S637
Okay... I rolled the dice! Put a set of Saliun S637 today. How are they holding up for those who have put them on?

Here is what I have learned as a snowbirder and having talked with many people that have had tire failures. Goodyear is the best hands down. They would like you to claim it on your insurance and they will pay the deducible! If however you do it correctly with them, they will pay for everything, and it some causes give you 4 new tires, not just the one that failed.
You must have the failed tire and get a Goodyear dealer to ship the tire in to them. No tire no deal.
This spring a friend lost a Commercial TA and BFG/Michelin fixed his trailer and provided one new tire.
Few if any of the 2nd tier tire provides will pay for trailer damage, period!!!! It is excluded in just about all tire warranty statements ( including Goodyear's) as consequential damages.
So if you want to save a 100 dollars per tire on these Saliun tires that seem to be getting good review "so far", then great! Just understand that if one fails you will most likely not get the "Goodyear treatment"!
I could run much cheaper tires on my trailer and most likely never have a problem over the short haul. However we tend to keep things many years and buying the best has paid off in the long run for us. Your experience may vary!
Time to close this one!!!!!
