tires and I think I know what you are going to say

2011 fiver,8500 lbs, original towmax tires, because of circumstances has been sitting 2 years on boards but on the ground sunnyside tires covered... Of course the tread looks great, used very little, but I know to look for sidewall cracks, can't see any.
would you replace?? If so what brand do you like? Load range D on there now, would you go up to an E?? Don't have money to just throw away on new tires, but the old saying--- don't be a penny wise and a pound foolish may apply here. Your thoughts.
  • If you tow it, put the new'ish GY Endurance tires on it. You are on borrowed time on those blow max tires.
  • Hi you already know your starting a "war" lol Let me put my 2 cents I right quick. We went with Sailun's and have not looked back, good treadwear as well. They are inport's, but a good quality one. Matter of fact when I need new truck tires, they are going to be my choice. Good Luck and Happy Camping !!
  • Replace and use E rated, they don’t really cost much more and much better in the long run.
