Keep in mind that it is LowSuv's intention to help the civilians on this forum with their tire issues .
LowSuv includes in his posts the logical evidence that indicate that Maxxis is a provider of lower grade tires .
Other motorheads on his forum who have decades of experience upgrading their tires on their hotrods , sportscars , pickups , and other trailers have a good understanding of how a real upgrade in tires is possible for little expense at changeover time .
LowSuv does not enter into personal attacks on this forum .
Maxxis ST tires are most often supported on this forum by references , such as " I really like them " , or " my tire guy ( whoever that is ) says you cannot use LT tires on a trailer ".
My whole intention is to allow other RV forum members to make a real upgrade that will eliminate / mitigate future ST tire failures going forward .
The evidence supports the position that Maxxis tires are not a better brand than other ST tires .
Those suggestions that just replacing OEM tires with a maxxis tire of the same load weight rating are just plain wrong . There is no gain to be made by that Maxxis replacement .
LowSuv repeatedly gives reasons why for 15 inch tires the 225/70R15 load range D Goodyear Cargo G26 is the clear first choice .
LowSuv repeatedly gives reasons why for 14 inch tires the 205R14 Kumho 857 load range D is the clear first choice .
A search through " view posts " for LowSuv will show that his suggestions are supported by logical evidence and have been consistent for a long time .
As a motorhead LowSuv made his first tire upgrade in 1964 on his 1955 BelAir by going to 720x15 tires instead of the 670x15 tires that came stock .
LowSuv has been upgrading his tires ever since .
I encourage upgrading tires at replacement time .
Changing brands to Maxxis does not accomplish this .
