So ERS, we seem we have three levels of tires:
1. Low cost high k factor ST's.
2. Mid cost poly carcass LT's.
3. High cost steel carcass LT's and commercial grade truck trailers.
Of the three, which one have we not seen many failures reported on (excluding the GY G614)?
Which two have similar k factor numbers?
This is our forth winter in a snowbird park in Az, so I get to see a lot of damaged trailers and talk to the owners. This year on our short little street we had a no name ST failure and a G614 failure, both with a lot of damage. Around a Conner is a Cameo that lost a Duro, and when installing new G614's he found the three remaining ones starting to separate also.
So despite saying they are built similar, they clearly do not perform similar.
My statement about ST tires being for delivery and display is probably truer than one thinks!
