Goodyear Enduance vs Maxxis 8008

Constructive input only please.
Need to replace original factory tires (Trailer King brand) on our 2017 Outback due to a sidewall bubble noticed at the end of last season. Not going to debate this tire just want safety and piece of mind with tires.
Pros and cons please between Goodyear Endurance and Maxxis 8008 ST tires please.
Thank You in advance
  • The Maxxis' have been excellent for me both on my old 22' TT and on my current MC trailer. After having a China Bomb blowout I replaced all 4 on the TT with Maxxis and never looked back. I will never run anything else.

    :C
  • I bet there is a very very small percentage of trailers running truck tires compared to trailer tires. That would be the reason you hear very little about truck tire blowouts.
  • Maxxis has a history and the Endurance is new so there's not much data. I've used Maxxis since 2005 and had good luck. One threw the tread at 5yrs but never went flat. Another got a bubble on the 5th year and I got a new tire through the Maxxis warranty for $36.Maxxis warranties against defects for 6 years. Not sure about the Endurance, but hearing good things so far.

    If I had 16 inch tires I wouldnt use either,I'd go with a LT truck tire.You rarely hear of blowouts with truck tires. Just my 2cents.

    No debates. Just pros and cons that eliminates any study on your part? Keep it simple!
