Anyone have any updates on their Carlisle Radial Trail HD's?

[rsaylor3]

Am replacing my tires and moving from load range D to E. Want the extra buffer. I also notice that my trailer tends to lean toward the one side making me think that side is supporting more of the weight anyway.

I was looking at Maxxis as well but I like the idea of the Carlisle's being a newer design as well as my Carlisle Radial Trail RH tires on my boat trailer have been on there almost 5 years without a problem at all.

I would love to hear from people that have the HD's and hear what their experiences are. Please do your best to not tell me about your old Carlisle from years ago that was ****:)

Thanks in advance for your replies!

I'm a little late to the party on this thread but I just found the info I was looking for! I was looking at the Carlisle and a Heartland both sold at discount tire. Is there any info on Heartland tires?
My gut tells me the Carlisle is the way to go!
I saw a mention of Maxxis tires but I have those OEM, No more than 3k miles on them and they are wearing thin and will be replaced in the next couple days.

Carlisle would be the people you should ask this question as they will supply the warranty on their new tires.

Carlisle in the past has said warranty is void if the damaged tire has been operated at less than max cold set pressures.

I got 10,000 +/- miles each out of my last two sets of GY Marathons. I expect no less out of the new Carlisle HDs. I actually expect more. Time will tell.

So far so good with about 750 miles on them.

I was going to get LT tires, but no one in my area sold ones I needed for a reasonable price (couldn't get the right load rating). I had a couple people on here provide a bunch of options for me on LT tires. I got invited on an impromptu calling trip so I needed a set in a hurry. I went with the HDs from discount tire. I only have the one trip about 120 miles each way. Pulled well, didn't notice really much difference, will be interesting to see how they hold up. They look much nicer than most trailer tires.

I just put four of these on my trailer today. THEN I decided maybe I ought to see if anybody on here had any experience with them. Heh. In one of the other threads around here people seem to be having good luck so far. Mine go out for their first trip in a week, but its just a couple of hundred miles... I'll be following along as well.

I have 7,000 miles on my Carlisle RH tires without any issues.

[rsaylor3]

I sure will. I just got back from 6 hour round trip and will be doing a 16 hour round trip on the new HD's early August . Can't wait to see how they tow.

You going with the HD's I assume? Let us know what you think.

[rsaylor3]

Thanks for everyone's replies! I had them order the tires and new metal valve stems. Can't wait to know I have new ones on there!

As it stands now I wouldn't hesitate to buy them again!

Never ran the HD though, so can't comment on those. Sure don't think I'd be scared of them with my results with the RH.

I have them on my 5th wheel. I will report back if I have any problems or in 4 years when I get some new tires.

When I bought mine just a couple months ago Discount Tire was the only one that had them. I'm still not sure if they aren't an exclusive tire for just them, especially since the RH's are still referred to as 'new' on Carlisle's website.

I got my RH's from Tread Depot in April of '15. Agree the HD's may be too new, also agree they're getting good reviews so far, as are the RH's. Happy with mine.
