AKA "GreenBlows". The 2 best choices in ST tires are Maxxis and the Carlisle RH, in that order, from all accounts. Both have reports of failures, but seem to be many fewer than other China bomb STs. If you want true peace of mind, spend the extra $ and get 16" wheels and LT tires. Yes, they cost more, but they really are a cut above.
Personally, I have the Carlisles on my FW. Will be 4th year on them in 2016 and they've been excellent tires.

Agreed!
There isn't any need in upgrading to 16in wheels and LT tires on a rig of your size. It won't hurt nothing but your wallet I guess. But I say get the Maxxis or Carlisle Radial RH in LRE and press on!
FYI, I too have the Carlisle Radial RH and have been extremely pleased with them. 3yrs now and great wear and ride!
