Well here we go again had st235/80r/16 on my trailer 2007 Montana. So far this trip have had 3 blowouts. Need I say not happy. Tires are less than 2 yr old and only about 3000 miles. Did a lot of damage to the trailer but it was all cosmetic thank god. All the tires had 80 psi so under inflating was not the problem. They are firestone tires or shouuld I say were.

Freestar tires are just another junk Chinese brand. They are not affiliated with Firestone in any way.

I run Firestone TransForce LT 235 80r 16 on my Keystone 34 ft Everest and have at least 22 thousand miles on them with absolutely no problems. I never run an ST tire.

NO - *DON'T* buy Maxxis (unless you needed 15" tires)..:R..:(

Spend some time using the search feature..;)

HOURS of reading -and info- for *quality* LT replacement for your 235/80 ST China Bombs.

XPS Ribs, BF Goodrich, etc.

Perhaps you should change your post title to say that. Lots of folks on here read only the subject line, or at best the first post. Yeah, I know.

Ohhhhh, so they are NOT Firestone tires? Freestar tires made in China sold by whole bunch of different tire stores. Just more ST junk. Maybe you should consider installing LT tires for a change.
