46 Month old Maxxis tire

Thought these would last longer than they did. Am I expecting too much? This was on the left rear today before swapping with the spare. It is a 205/75/15-LRD. Trailer originally came with LRC.

Better than DURO Bias ply (OEM) and Denman Express (BK)

Have ordered Goodyear Endurance. Will see how they go.

  • There is More to this story...Write down the location of tire FYI. Its not always a simple as a name brand of the tire..
  • If the tire didn't rub on something, Maxxis owes you a new tire.

    "Subject to the limitations contained in this Limited Warranty, your new Maxxis tires are
    warranted under this Limited Warranty against failures due to defective materials and
    workmanship for a period of six years from the date of manufacture."
  • Check the date code. Bet they are older than you think. Also they are still a ST tire and I have yet to find a brand that you can reliably expect to get more than 5 years life.
  • Shifted belt/tread separation. At 4yrs old ide say you almost got the entire life span from them.
  • could that tire have rubbed against some thing. ? I,d crawl under the rig and look.
  • Maxxis have a 5 year warranty. Make a warranty claim. What was the date of manufacture as you might have been sold old tires and your 46 month tire might have been much older.
  • Maxxis makes good ST tires but they still have issues from time to time.
  • Tread separation; it happens to all makes and models of tires. Your turn in the barrel. Buy a different kind of tire if you don't trust those and get on with gittin on.
