- brireneExplorerActually I saw that and tried to link it here. You're right, can't say that anymore! A little suspect, and odd that he went right back to more Carlisle's, but there it is in black and white. Guess we'll see, huh Huntindog? :) Glad we're both happy with what we've got! Happy trails!

There is another thread on this running right now at the top.
This is the tire that is supposed to be be all end all.
The Radial Trail RH is the one that came out in 2013, per JIMNLIN's post. That is the one that I and others have been running (mine for 18 months) and all reports I've seen have been positive. The Radial Trail HD is the supposedly improved version that came out more recently, possibly Jan or Feb of this year. The website (here) doesn't specify, but I think it's too early to tell the reliability of that one. Reports thus far have been favorable, as far as I've seen. Not sure about the "be all end all", but time will tell.
Carlise RH failures.
I did not even have to look. It was right there at the end of the thread. - westendExplorerThe Fishing Pros on the Bassmaster tour use the Carlisle Radial Trail RH. Have you seen how these guys drive a boat? :E :B

IMO some ST supporters are over the top with their comments like;
""And just as predictably, LT folks will come along and smugly and condescendingly explain that anyone who uses ST's really doesn't understand, is kind of simple minded and easily duped, and doesn't mind throwing their money away on an inferior product,....... ""
IMO these type remarks serve no purpose other than bash some with a differing opinion.
Thanks for posting the Carlisle information. Current, accurate information is valuable.
As for your second statement, it reminds me of the boy who was asked why he was fighting with his schoolmate: "it all started when he hit me back". :) Have a good day!

Did you really expect a different answer? You're question was bait and a whole bunch of people on both sides took it hook line and sinker
If you are on your fourth trailer (or whatever) you've already made up your mind. No question you needed answered and just looking to stir up the controversy yet again.
Mike - Boon_DockerExplorer IIIThanks !
I am surprised that Good Year published a chart like that seeing as they recommend using only trailer designed or trailer specific tires in trailer towable applications. - gmw_photosExplorer

Could you please give me a link to that quote.
The only thing I can find that they are talking about is replacing the OE (Original Equipment) LT tires with passenger tires. Couldn't find any mention about trailers using passenger tires.
Look down thru this document ( it's a pdf, so it may, or may not open right up for you ):
http://hmcclub.homestead.com/Goodyear_Tire_Inflation___Load_Charts.pdf
ps. I've been researching this whole subject for years, and if there is one thing I've found, it is that, even though there is a lot of info out there, it's not necessarily easy to find. Dig, and keep digging, and read thru a lot of very boring government, and SAE documents, etc, but eventually we can find good info. It just takes a lot of perseverance. - Boon_DockerExplorer IIICould you please give me a link to that quote.

Passenger tires, nothing to do with this discussion.
Actually it does have something to do with this discussion. Some folks might be interested to know that Good Year provides load/inflation tables for using both LT and P tires on trailers and light trucks.
The plot thickens.....
EDIT: they even conveniently enough, factor in, to quote them:
"*Loads have been reduced by a service factor of 1.10 for passenger tires used on light trucks, trailers or multi-purpose passenger vehicles"
