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?

    " I rolled the dice!"

    I love these posts! Doing something and then asking is what I did okay instead of asking first then making an informed decision.

    I would never put an off brand tire on my RV. I like GY trailer tires. 3 sets and never a blow out or flat. More money, sure but worth it in my book.

    I sincerely hope you get good service from your new tires.

    No, unless China annexed Kansas. The G614 is manufactured in their plant in Witchita, KS.

    A year ago I posted about this very tire when I installed 4 on my Montana in place of the Goodyear Marathons. I also installed a tire pressure monitor system from TST. I have internal sensors so the readings are very accurate. I have about 6000 miles on them now. On a recent trip with 90degree air temp, cold pressure 100 labs and 90degrees, 1 hr into trip pressure 115 lbs and tire temp 135 degrees. These values held through the remainder of the 4 hour trip. The tire really handles the two conditions that ultimately lead to tire failure.
    They are wearing perfectly with no scrubbing or feathering.
    Best of all I paid about half of what they wanted for Goodyear G's.
    Good choice you won't be sorry.


    Good information, keep us posted on them if you would. Again, for all the Quality conditions they meet to attain some of the certifications they've achieved, I think they're worth looking at , unlike some of the china made tires that change their name once or twice a year to protect the non quality controlled manufacturing processes most display but don't take responsibility for......

  • Look like great tires to me, especially seeing as how they've met more than several Quality and Management control processes( ISO9001, ISO14001 and ISO/TS16949)....Unlike a lot of China made tires, these people seem to want to build a quality product. My OWN company has met all the above criteria as a world wide Tier One Supplier and it's not easy....All one has to do is the research...MOST Chinese made tires DON'T have the credentials these tires do...IF reports stay good, when time to replace my G614's...I will be looking hard at the Saliun S637...again, if you look at the company's QUALITY EARNED credentials, you'll understand why nowhere NEAR the negatives as other "may pop's" manufactured in China...again....do the research....as of now this tire would be the only one I'd look at made in China at this time to replace my OEM tires...
  • I have had great luck with mine so far. I think if you take care of them they will work fine.
  • Oh boy you are really asking for it. Three strikes and you are out.
    1. I see that the 235/85R16 is "specifically designed for trailer use". OMG!!! It's one of those evil and dreaded "ST" tires.
    2. They are made in China! OMG!!
    3. You didn't buy a Michelin "Rib" or Bridgestone "Duravis". How dare you.

    Now that you have installed them on your trailer it's like 99.99999% likely that they will blow up and leave you stranded.


    I'm kidding of course. You didn't roll the dice. You bought a good quality set of tires that will safely carry you to all kinds of fun camping spots. Enjoy!
