That statement and cheap ST tires is like trying to mix oil and water. It mixes for a short time only, separating back to it's basic components in a short time.
Each day or two another tire thread appears here and 95 percent of them are about failed ST tires. Some would like to blame the user. However we are talking about a product that has changed very little and was original intended for local use on utility type trailers.
Put them on large tall RV trailers and drive them hour after hour at freeway speed and we regularly read about all the failures. Couple that with a trailer with plywood flooring, wiring and gas line in the path of a failed tire and 2000-4000 dollars in damage is common.
I smart "finicky" person would be looking for a tire that is of higher quality with a better track record. Chris
