WoodGlue - Rolls Royce of tires? REally? Maybe you should do a search - there has been a few failures with the "Mx" brand as well.

Maxxis are, I'm sure, fine tires. I had them on a boat trailer (boat and trailer weight about 3500 lbs) and had a problem with both of them with tread separation. I have read so much about the "China bombs" being made by many different manufacturers. My experience: On the last 3 campers I have owned, ( 2 TT's and one Fifth wheel) I had Goodyear Marathons on each of them for about 4 years before trading trailers. My current trailer is the 3rd of them with Goodyear Marathons (entering the 5th year now) and I have had absolutely zero problems with any of them. Explain that to me please.

Look at Maxxus tires. They've been around forever (made in Indonesia and the rolls Royce of RV tires. They also stand behind their product!

Kumhos are made in South Korea.

Not "China Bombs", except perhaps to those who see no difference between Communist China and every other country in Asia.

Hundreds of posts on this subject. Best tire for you is probably Max is.
