nobody can say that there is some brand of number one ST tires .
Consumer Reports tested Maxxis MA-T1 Escapade passenger car tires in their November 2012 issue on page 60 .
Consumer Reports purchases their tires and that issue covered about 62 all season tires and 16 winter tires .
The Maxxis were in the lowest 25 % .
The solution to tire failure is to use the load rating posted on the sidewall of the tire .
If you have a load rating of 1820 # you will gain a significant reserve by upgrading to a tire with 2271 # and so forth .
There have been no reports of steel RV wheel failure due to overinflation say to 80 psi .
You can gain a margin of safety by using a load range E tire and using 80 psi , as the tire sidewall states .
For most that means in a 15 inch RV wheel that the 225 /75 R15 load range E is the highest rating you can get .
A change to 16 inch wheels ( 6 bolts not 5 ) allows one to use the common 245/75R16 load range E tire at 3042 # . Only a few will do this .
Tire Load Rating in pounds trumps brand .
