FE, you should get a job with Keystone and solve the issues with most of their larger trailers with GAWR of 6750 and two Marathon's rated to 3420. Have you contacted them about this terrible tire choice? If trailers came OEM with tires better suited to weight and use, then we would see a lot less tire threads. Chris
I’ve been to a couple of large RV shows lately and took lots of pictures. Here is one depicting just the figures you are talking about. Keystone has learned nothing about their OE tires in more than 10 years. And their OE supplier here is GY with tires rated at 3420# that just barely meet the vehicle’s GAWR. BUYERS BEWARE!!!

I believe Tireco or Tredit are in the middle between Goodyear and Keystone with both Goodyear and Keystone turning a bind eye to the issues. Carriage was not much better with rebranded Duro tires at 3520 on 7K axles.
60 Minutes should do a feature on it. Chris
