Man, does this thread bring back BAD memories. :S
Kinda makes you wonder where the thread starter has been for LOTS of years - as well as whatever attorneys might be considering a clsas action!! Marathon horror stories (as well as some supporters) were all over the boards here.
The bad karma of GY Marathon tires is really ancient history!
Even when they were manufactured in the USA.
The Airstream Owners forums had a Marathon Failures thread that ran for years - and probably still does.
The plus side (if there is one) - GY would replace your Marathons (usually) at no charge AND pay for damage done to your trailer by a failed tire..:) Unfortunately, NO compensation for "down time"..:(
BTW - GY lost a major lawsuit involving Marathons (and other GY tires)
"way back when" (w/fatalities involved). Common practice to have the settlement "sealed", however the results of that one ran in a newspaper.
OOPS!
