Chinese RV tires... holding up!
Got a new RV with factory installed Made in China tires with unknown brand. I figure I'll have it replaced after a year. But to my pleasant surprise, after a thousand miles and 5 months in deep ...

Ahhhhhhhh.....as long as there are RVs, there will be tire debates.
Re Chinese "bombs": In 2013, we bought a Winnebago Minnie travel trailer and I kept the original Chinese tires on it for about a year (can't remember their product name). But, then we were about to take a long trip out west (Grand Tetons, Yellowstone, Glacier NP, Little Big Horn, Devil's Tower and SD Badlands), so for peace of mind, I replaced the tires with Maxxis tires. I had owned popups with Maxxis tires and they served us well.
If I were purchasing a rig that had tires that weren't manufactured by a reputable well know brand, I would look to replace them just for my own peace of mind.
Maxxis or Goodyear Endurance? With the Endurance tires being out for quite awhile, I don't think I would hesitate to go with them, but I would still consider Maxxis tires.
