I'd also recommend the Maxxis tires, have had great luck with mine. As for deflection, part of the reason ST tires don't have as much deflection as LT tires is because the ST tires are designed to be scooted sideways when turning and backing so sidewalls are generally stiffer to keep tires from rolling off the rim, thus the higher weight rating of ST tires. Manufacturers use STs predominantly for a reason, and its not so you'll have more blowouts. They just haven't made good choices in the brands that they use. I've seen LTs used on car trailers and when they turn it looks like the tire is ready to roll off the rim...not a pretty site for sure! In my opinion, a lot of people use the LTs just so they can run as fast as they want without having to worry about the speed rating on the tires. Of course some will argue that comment too.

Hi,
We have a 2013 Skyline Mountain View Joey Select (TT), currently with 225/75R15 Power King Tow Max tires load range D's. About 2 months ago we had a blow out that caused significant damage to the wheel well and I always check pressure, never overload and travel usually about 65-70mph when pulling. The GVWR is about 8500. The tires appeared to be in great shape when it blew and I've subsequently found a lot of bad reviews for those tires.
I have been looking to replace the set before we leave on a trip that will be roughly a 1400 mile trip in December and I want to have a dependable set of tires.
I am also fairly intent on buying a load range E set this time.
I have found some Trailer Kings on amazon with mostly good reviews but wanted any opinions on reputable tire manufacturers.
Any suggestions?

I only run Goodyear tires on my fiver. They are made in the USA. I do not trust any tire made in China. Get some good LT tires and make sure they have a load rating of more than you need.

I had good luck with Maxxis but if buying today, I would probably go with the Carlisle HD load range E.
ya it looks like a lot of people have been happy with the maxxis. Did you upgrade to the E from a D load range? if so, any noticeable changes with ride, traction, etc? and are you running at 80psi?
thanks!
