    Tire Problems? Some Facts from a Tire Engineer

    I havnt seen anyone on here or elsewhere have anything but good things to say about the Sailuns. That speaks for itself. I've seen plenty of bad things about the GY's on here also...money is not an object when it comes to the safety of my family. I would go with the Michelin XPS ribs, but I...

    Tire Problems? Some Facts from a Tire Engineer

    Cant be any worse than the Towmax warranty...at least in my dealings. I know GY has a great warranty, but from what I've read on here, a LOT of people seem to have to use the warranty which translates into "not really fixing the blowout problem" .

    Tire Problems? Some Facts from a Tire Engineer

    Yes sir, I hear ya. Texas is a big 'ol state as you know, and sometimes 60-65 just prolongs the agony in my case. Going through metro areas I definitely slow it down to the posted limits which is usually <60. Too many obstacles, bumps, and idiot drivers to deal with at higher speeds. But...

    I think I'll stay away from the GY's and go with the Sailun LT's. G rated, 110psi, and hopefully no problems.

    Sorry Jim for losing my cool. But, driving at 70mph shouldn't cause 3 tires to blow IMO.

    Tire Problems? Some Facts from a Tire Engineer

    I too have lost three Towmax's on my 2012 Cyclone 3800 T/H and want to go with a more reliable tire. Towing at 18k # and cruising at 70-75mph in the Texas heat, I'm looking at the Sailun S637's and the Michelin XPS ribs...any thoughts on these two tires and any recommendations on a tire to run...

    Power King Towmax STR tires

    Chalk me up to the bad Towmax experience...this past week lost two on my 2012 Cyclone 3800. Blew apart my mouldings, etc...on the slide out. Tires have less than 4000 miles on them, and to think I have to replace all 6 is really a ******. As an owner of a manufacturing company, I am held...
