Why ST tires?
Hey All, Total noob, trying to soak all this RV stuff in all at once. The Maxxis ST tires on my recently purchased 2001 TT "look" like new, but I don't know how old they actually are, so don't kno...

in my opinion running ANY tire at its max speed rating and very close to its max weight rating is running on the edge . To me its similar to running a truck just below its max rpm all day long loaded , something is going to blow .
I run LT tires on all my dual axel heavy trailers 12K capacity on 10K trailers ,pleanty of reserve capacity , I run st tires on my light duty trailers single axel ( they are never more than 70% of capacity and local only)
Driving on the highway , I like knowing my tires are rated at 90 mph plus , I generally run with the flow of traffic up to 75 mph , Mostly run 65 , but my equipment can handle the higher speed due to the LT tires .
