anyone out there having trouble with les tow max tires. I have a 2010 wildcat 5th wheel. in the last 2 years I have replaced 4 tires due to separation. everything is alig correct no excess weight. dealer keeps telling me they sell thousands. when asked how many have they replaced. no response tire size st235/80r-16/10. the last tire separation happened only 45 day from being installed. there telling me the 45 day tie is not separated. nothing like going down thw highway waiting for a blow out. iam ready to try geo star LT 235/85R16/14. any input would be helpful.

I have a Heartland Sundance that came with Towmax. I made 4 campouts, about 200 miles, and noticed a tire seperating. The Heartland forum has 100's of Towmax tire complaints of blowouts and tread seperation. They are junk !

I bought 4 new Maxxis and have not had any problems since. I did a lot of research and Maxxis has the best reputation for ST tires on the market.

I found that Carlisle and Goodyear Marathons also have terrible reviews. The Goodyear G614 tires have good reviews but cost a small fortune.

I dont know anything about the Geo Star, but I would do my homework before purchasing. You dont want to end up in the same boat your already in.

Why not install LT tires?
