Not only that, I will have to buy another set of LT tires after 5-6 years, unless LT tires are not subject to age.
Why would you do that. LT tire makers advertize replacement age from 7-10 years depending on brand.
ST from 3-5 years depending on brand.
I figure you will argue and say that Endurance\Maxxis or Carlisle HD tires won't last 3 years due to being ST tires and being new, but there is a proven track record on the Maxxis that says they will.
We have over 30+ rv owners who have reported issues with their Maxxis ST8008. Not a very good track record just on this website.
I see similar complaints on other RV and non rv trailering websites. Maxxis is a bit dated with their 65 max speed and not all sizes have the nylon cap under the tread yet.... which may be a reason for some Maxxis tire complaints.
If I was going to use a ST tire it would go with one of the new gen higher speed rated tires like the Provider or the Endurance or the Carlisle HD in that order.
