One persons experience is never enough to make an educated guess at. That's why they have things called surveys and reviews. Glad they have worked for you and my decision has also made
OK, I am sure there are SOME failures. But i have heard ZERO issues on the RV Forums I have looked at. Now when you talk failures you need to be sure it is not a "road hazard" failure.
A guy did post somewhere a "failure" but it looked like a puncture and later he said it was.

The Endurance has been out for over two years now. They have a spotless record! I run them on my heavy salt water boat trailer.
There have been several Maxxis failures reported.
GY does have a great warranty.

In the world of commercial trailers more tire weight is a good thing for best long term durability and reliability.
I doubt a rv trailer with the same tires/axles/wheels is any different.
The Maxxis ST8008 vs the Endurance gets posted a lot.
With over 30 rv website members reporting issues with ST8008s I sure would say their superior to any other trailer tire in the last 6-8 years. Complaints on haulers websites run about the same.
