The main problem is that ST E rated tires made in China Or America are not the right tool for the job for the heavier 5er's , Montana and others have had Goodyear Gy614's as options for years but most do not want to spend the money(big mistake)On my last 2 Montana's I have swapped out the stock ST E rated Marathons and Trailer King St's and am running CHINESE Geostar G574's G rated 14ply LT tires from Les Schwab Tire here on the West coast They are a HEAVY DUTY TIRE that put the stock E rated ST's to shame with a Full Warranty AND they gave me 80 bucks a piece for them (the Farmers Love the Marathon and Trailer king St's for their Hay haulers)So cost out the door was 900 bucks after the Trailer King tire trade in, I am a fulltimer and have traveled MANY thousand miles on these tires with great Results Bottom line is if you have a Big 5er G rated LT 14ply is right tool for the job ...NOT E rated ST
