I hope this post shows up in an appropriate forum. Have been finding limited information online as to which new tires to get for fifth wheel. Gross veh. weight is 11,590. I was advised to upgrade from existing ST225/75D15 to LRE 10 ply, load 125 radials (an ST225/75E15). The main ones I am finding in that range are Maxxi's or Carlysle. Any suggestions from folks here? Is there a better option? I hope to have them installed on 4/1. Thanks.
If you can afford it, and the tire spacing will allow, switch to 16" tires and buy a good LT. If it's not in the budget, the Maxxis is your best bet in a 15" ST. IMO, the Carlisle RH is the 2nd choice. I =do= have the Carlisles simply because I couldn't get the Maxxis in time for a trip. So far (knock on wood), they're serving me well.
