Okay, I know this will open a can of worms. I am changing the tires on my FW next week.
Goodyear - LT235/85R16 G614 tires - Purchase price for four = $1421.19
Sailun - ST235/85R16 S637 tire - Purchase price for four = $736.68
Which would you go with? And why?

Jim, I've owned both. I've had Goodyears on a Class-C and I replaced brand factory new 5th wheel tires with the Sailun's. Literally, drove a new 5th wheel off the lot straight to the tire store. The amount of damage an 85 series tire can do to a trailer is amazing and the risk wasn't worth it to me.
The Sailuns were literally 100% more weight than the tires they replaced. They're built like 22.5" Michelins that you'd see on a diesel pusher. Heavy.
You can get Sailun's in LT also.
Go with the Sailun's for a trailer - you can get them in 80 series too, if that's more in line with your trailer specs. Make sure the wheels are up to the tire rating and never worry about tires again.
