Wait, what about the Goodyear Endurance , it’s has a stellar reputation one said, but how’s that possible , at 2 years old .
I agree Sailun is the only one for me , it TRULY has a stellar reputation
The Endurance is popular. However just about any brand tire that is two+ years old shouldn't show any assues yet. Hell many old Carlisle radial trail maypops for past years would last that long. Too early yet but I would bet they will have a better service record than the tires they replaced.
We saw this with the Maxxis ST8008 when they first came out. 3 to 5 years later as they accumulated miles and years of service they started coming up with issues.
The Sailuns 16" load G S637 has been around now in the trucking side, and recentley the rv industry, for over 10 years now. Right now there the holy grail for 16" load g tires for serious haulers...and even rv trailer owners. 10 year service record vs 2+ years service record. Make your own choices.
For 5.2k or lite loaded 6k axle the Bridgestone R238 LT235/85-16 E at 3042 lbs commercial grade all steel ply carcass would be my pick.
For a max loaded 6k axles or 7k axles the Sailun S637 in a ST235/80-16 G at 4080 lbs capacity.
For heavy loaded 7k and 8k axle the Sailun ST235/85-16 G at 4400 lbs capacity.
Both would be great choices for the job.
WE get these tire help requests all the time with no input what the trailers gvwr or axle ratings are...or the OEM tire sizes and load ranges.
Need a sticky for trailer tire requestion that has all the info so we could give the OP a better less cluttered choices.
