15" tires, Goodyear Wrangler HT or Goodyear Endurance

Hi everyone i had crappy tires on my work trailer and after i was out of tires i swapped out the tires on my travel trailer to my work trailer (Wrangler HT's)

Now i am about to buy 4 new tires for my travel trailer and wondered if anyone has anything bad to say about the Endurance trailer tires or if i should stick with Wranglers. Trailer weight is about 5500 roughly.

Thanks for any thoughts/opinions

    I have heard good reports on the new Endurance tires. If possible, I would go to 16" rims.

    The Wranglers are proven.
    The Endurance is too new to have much of a track record.Many ST tires have had good initial reports, only to fail later as the miles and time go by.

    So if you have been happy with the Wranglers.... Why take a chance on the new kid on the block>

    Let others do it, and report back over a few years.

    I have Wrangler HT's and never a problem. After tens of thousands of miles, they look almost new. While I believe that the USA made Endurance is a step in the right direction, I would stay with proven truck tires and drive without worry.

    I have Endurance -- 10k miles, no problems. But too soon to say if they are really good or just "so far, so good."

    One tire has a proven track record on all types of trailering forums including rv trailers ....and the other has been out around a year and has no track record.

    I would go with the proven tire.

    I also have Endurance tires but with only around 5,000 miles, so far so good.

    I think the Endurance have been proving themselves out and I also think they're trailering specific build is advantageous.
    If I were in the market I would go with them. (Have them on our new TT)

    I check in with local discount tire store to keep track of problems with new endurance. Since last April 24 installed, zero problems (so far) Real test will be 4 or 5 years down the road IMO.

    Endurance, so far so good, but only about 2k miles. Really like the way they ride compared to the crappy tires they replaced.

    We have Endurance for about 4000 miles. So far, so good and love the higher speed rating. Long highways and good cruising speeds. 80mph is nothing for them if within your weight rating.
