We have six tandem axle and one triple axle trailer on our farm. Thirty tires on the ground, a spare for each and another 10 or 12 in the service rack. Everyone of them is a Carlisle HD, identical tires and wheels. We have a full time mechanic on the farm who has been with us for 20 years. In 2022 I had to make several trips from southern Michigan to central Florida with one of our enclosed car haulers, about 2400 miles round trip. On the sixth trip back to MI I noticed a slight vibration. Stopped to check the tires, get fuel and dinner. Saw nothing wrong with the tires. Pulled back onto the highway and thought the world had come to an end - the trailer was actually bouncing up and down on a smooth interstate. Got it pulled over and found that the tread had separated on one of the trailer tires. Got it changed and continued home. Had our mechanic check it out. Turns out that tire and one other on that trailer were 16 years old with about 45K on them. I had put over 14K on them in the last eight months. Somehow two tires had managed to stay in service 16 years without being caught. Bottom line is that we have run Carlisle Tires for almost 50 years and countless miles and never had an issue - except for this one we brought upon ourselves.
Love it! We still use them on most all our construction trailers and hallmark enclosed trailers.
If that isn't a good customer testimony then I don't know what is.
One thing to consider regarding tread depth. The deeper the tread, the more “block rock” your tires will have. Block rock is what happens when the actual treads flex side to side causing a sway type of feel. It’s very common when tires are brand new. As the tread wears down, the tighter it feels going down the road. This is why most ST trailer tires have around 8 to 9 32nds of tread. If you had really thick tread on a trailer tire, it would contribute to overall trailer sway. This is another reason why LT tires are a bad idea for travel trailers.
Good info..👍🏼
I've had 4 different travel trailers and always used carlisle tires, never had any problems.
I still like the Carlisle myself but after looking at these in person and such high positive feedback from many people in the RV world well figured I would give them a shot. I was gonna get the Carlisle just from seeing them always on construction trailers and more and they get beat up.
I'm spending some time on your great YT channel Johnny. Nice review here on the tires. I too bought the made in America GY Endurance tires for my 2 trailers after doing much research. Regarding tread depth, I noticed this too. However, in my case, the tires will age out long before I ever wear them out.
That is often the case with most people. It’s takes a while for the average person to burn a set of tires unless full time.
I’m the same, I have a job that I have to report to..😅👍🏼
I towed from south Florida to SoCal last year. 2 years prior I towed out to lake powell from South Fl. Goodyear endurance tires , tandem axle with a donzi 22 classic. I probably put 30,000 miles on the tires over 4 years. I replaced them just because but the tread looked good to me. Usually tires will rot from the inside out and a new set of tires every 4 years is maintenance… Anyway , zero tire issues. Lol. Same set of bearings as well ! Airtight hubs and Goodyear Endurance tires ! Good stuff !
I’m still hearing good stuff on the GYEnd..👍🏼😀
I put Goodyer Endurance tires on my 5th wheel camper also. I put Sailun S637's on the gooseneck 10 ton trailer. Both choices were due to ratings from you and others on UA-cam. Thanks. So far , no issues with either.
Nice, I had over 4k on the Goodyears before I sold the trailer recently. Got a lot of traveling before it went.
My new trailer has Westlakes… they are also a good tire from reviews and ratings but I don’t know if I’ll keep them much longer.
I use Carlisle on my 18' single axle travel trailer and my single axle 18' runabout boat trailer. They performed excellent, wear great, never had a problem.
That’s what we used to use on the construction trailers and still do. But they didn’t have the endurance years ago and so far they do well for the travel trailer group
I took the Westlake Tires that come on my new TT off at 110 miles and replaced them with GY Endurances and just pulled them off at about 28.000 miles still looked pretty good but I wanted to feel OK on the next long trip, I pull at the speed limit if its 80 MPH I pull it 80 MPH, had a set of Westlake's on a another trailer and lost 2 of them before I wised up!! One time it cost about 1,900 dollars in repairs to that trailer and a 250.00 dollar service call out in the Mojave Desert.
Definitely look at the moryde crossmembers for the spring hangers, in your video the flex is scary and leads to broken hangers when the metal fatigues.
Yea I look almost every trip. Although this unit has now been sold.
Another well regarded tire is the Sailun S637. It is a G (up to 110psi) rated tire but can be run at lower pressures on lighter trailers. It has a reputation for being extra tough and it is used commercially on trailers. Should be used with wheels designed to handle that pressure. I currently have GY Endurance on my 15K 5th wheel and they've held up fine, coming up on their fourth year. OE tire on it were the GY Marathon which were fine until a gigantic bulge developed in a sidewall. Pretty scary, avoided disaster by catching it before a return trip, having the spare installed. I've seen the damage blowouts can cause and I hope to never go through that myself.
Yes I don’t won’t a blowout as well so about 4 years max depending on conditions.
And yes I looked at the Sailuns but jump in price plus I would have needed new rims for those tires I guess. So the GY E rated endurance which is what my trailer needs anyway was a good fit. So far they are doing great and as long as they don’t change who manufactures them or the material I think these will sell well for 10 years till the next best thing comes along.
Thanks for the comment and thanks again for watching 👍🏼😀
Good comparison and it’s Goodyear for me!! After having a blowout with the stock “bombs” on a 100 degree day in north Texas, I wanted peace of mind! Luckily I had Tireminders installed, so I knew the instant the tire blew and got off the road without wheel damage. Those Endurance tires looked good in the store. I wish Goodyear came standard on new trailers. With the prices they charge, they should!
I guess some of the newest trailers are out you can upgrade I guess.
But yea there was a bit of difference for sure when looking them over and I did that squish Test as well. Was surprised how easy it was on the other tire.
So will see how will the good years hold up.
My China Bomb blew on a hot south Texas day. That ain’t no fun, brother. The Goodyear’s price adds up, but any price is worth it to avoid that hassle again.
@@rabbi7933 Yep on the hot sun, I got caught out in the Mojave Desert in Calif and it was a 112 degrees that day, I thought we were going to Melt Lol
Thank you! Very helpful I just hope I can get a good price but I’ve decided to also go with the Goodyear wranglers on my truck as well. Maybe I can get a deal.
I hear mainly good things about the endurance still 👍🏼
My Jayco 5th wheel is two years old and came with Goodyear Endurance tires. I’ve towed it almost 20,000 miles and the tires still look great. I checked the unused spare’s tread depth for comparison (7/32”). The “old” tires are all at 5/32”. According to Goodyear’s website, the tires will need replacing when they reach 2/32”. I’m very happy with the tires.
I love my GYE..! I’ll be swapping mine next year as they are stamped late 2020 if I remember. I only go about 4/5 years max on trailer tires.
My Jayco 5th wheel is 2 years old and I had to replace all 4 tires at 1.5 years old can’t get a tire over 4000 pound rated in that size rated over 4000 pounds 4 good year endurance tires court me mora than the 6 tires on my 1 ton going to go up to 17 inch rims and get a heavier rated tire that will last my last experience with Goodyear tires was on my 2000 dodge off-road truck the tires lasted 20500 miles they wear the only company that made that size off tire had to go to a taller tire got 60000 miles on them
I love my Goodyear Endurance tires.
Love mine!!! Doing great so far and hope it continues 👍🏼😀
on my second set of carlises and I will be moving to the Goodyear, I've found the carlises' wear very quickly, so maybe the goodyears are just a harder rubber.
I think the endurance is a harder compound so yes probably lasts longer
The Carlisle's give a much smoother ride, especially on a single axle light weight trailer. I went with these on my 6x10 cargo trailer camper conversion to lessen the bounce and smooth out the ride. I couldn't be happier. But the Endurance is the better choice for heavier trailers in my opinion.
Yea for my trailer being a little on the heavier side the endurance definitely seemed a better choice. Which when loaded it road great..👍🏼
Less tread depth is by design, it runs cooler just like on low boy tires pulled by semi trucks.
Mine had about 5 k And are still Like New. Except the tread and sidewall joint is getting small cracks. Dry rotting. Pisses me off but putting 4 New one's on.
Yea mine were still in great shape when I changed out but I feel I got enough out of them so didn’t want to take a chance.
Nice comparison of the two tires! Sure wish the Goodyear had better tread depth, it absolutely does make a difference in weather conditions, mud, less hydroplaning in deeper water (flash flood conditions) as well as useful tire longevity! It’s Unfortunate that good tire companies like Goodyear skimp out on tread depth that would serve us customers better!! Great video once again Johnny!!
The Carlisle has the deeper tread depth
@GTPCarpy yes but everything else about the Carlisle is worse. 😢
So is it Goodyear no question or is it more of what you are using it for..??
Make sure to smash 💥 that like button.👍🏼
I would consider Transeagle All Steel tires. You can get them for 15 and 16 inch wheels and also load ranges F and G at 12 and 14 ply. I’ve been using a set of 225/75-15 LR F 12 ply on an 18 foot utility trailer. If I still had my big toy hauler, I wouldn’t hesitate to throw a set on it.
Awesome thanks for the info..😀👍🏼
@@johnnysweekends you bet. Let us know what you decide on in the future.
Well I’ll be swapping trailers soon and the new one already has Goodyear endurance so I’ll run those with hopes of no problems lol. Will see. 👍🏼😀
What's the speed rating on the transeagles
@@electrified7309 81 mph is what I found for the 15s. I’d think that’d be plenty fast enough.
You did a great review, I had Trailer King RST 205/75R15’s on my new Travel Trailer. I also did some higher mileage on the TK’s at about 6000 miles and most of that was one trip out west and it was over 100 degrees most of our driving. They did a good job and did look new when I took them off. I just do not trust them past that. I went to a 225/75R15’s 10 ply E rated tire and did go with American made Carlisle’s HD with a March 2021 code. I did have a problem with premature cracking on my last set of GY Endurance Tires and they did have a issue. I’ll stick with my Carlisle’s and on the ranch it’s all we use. Even though they are now off shore as of April I believe. I know GY did rectify their problem but I was taken back by the tire shop not believing their was a problem with the Endurance tires. They did try and replace them after I contacted GY. The shop tried to make me pay for mounting and balancing and get this tire disposal fee on the bad GY’s Needless to say I did keep them and took my business else where and only use Carlisle’s now. I love the tread pattern and they do have a better ride and that is just my opinion
I believe the only safe travel trailer tires are the GY, Carlisle’s and my favorite if in stock, The Maxxis M8008 10 ply E rated tire. I just could not get them.
All three the the best tires in my opinion
We own 12 trailers for our company plus the RV ll running Carlisle’s and Maxxis
Again great video and review!
My
Sorry for the few typos
Awesome feedback thank you. I too was going to get the Carlisle HD until I got to see them in person. I have been around the boat industry and construction most of my life and that’s what’s on most the stuff. And it just gets abused. So have always trusted them and liked them.
But having look at the Goodyear up close which actually I’m not a fan of GY I decided they seem like the better tire. And of course from how man they sell, to the reviews and also allot of the airstream groups use them and some of them pack on some miles. So what the heck I’ll try them out. I look at my stuff religiously so hopefully see a problem before it turns into one.
So I guess will see after I’m done. I already have about 1500 miles maybe a little higher I’ll have to look.
Thanks for the comment and thanks again for watching 👍🏼😀
Btw I couldn’t get maxxis either….🤷♂️. Although didn’t try real hard.
Arrr we all Carlisle HD tired made in the US?
@@evenstargalaxy9586 nope all the HD Trailer tires are now made in their own factory in China by their employees even the 10ply E Rated I have 20,000 on mine and already bought 4 more. I prefer Maxxis M8008 Plus but got a great deal from my local tire shop on Carlisle’s
Just picked up a set of Carlisle Trail HD for my trailer yesterday.
That’s what I originally went in to buy since using them on construction trailers a bunch and they have always done me well in other uses.
But overall the Goodyear did seem a little better and all the Airstream guys had them and swore by them, so what they I’ll give them a chance and see..🤷♂️
Overall they did seemed to be built better
@@johnnysweekends Exactly, I'm using my trailer to haul firewood and lawnmowers. No interstate driving, mainly rural highways, and in town. They should last me a good while I'd hope.
Oh yea should be fine. We beat them up on dump trailers all the time. Surprised they hold air lol
My 2022 WolfPup 16BHS came with Westlake C rated tires, the bare minimum. I have put them on Kijiji, essentially u used, and running 225/75 R15’s, D rated. The GY tires are too stiff for the trailer weight, did not want to shake the trailer apart. We will see how they perform, 65 psi.
Yea people tend to wanna out heavy load rated tires on really small trailers when bumping from a C to a D is more then enough. All it will do is make for a harsh ride. Same when people put E load on really small suv vehicles it actually makes it worse. Beats you up, robs gas mileage, harder to stop and accelerate.
I think D is the right choice..👍🏼
Ty sir
😀👍🏼
Thanks for the review, I am looking at the trailer kings, mostly because they are about $80 cheaper per tire than the good years, and are a g load rated, e rated are pushing the envelope on my 5th wheel for weight. How did you like the trailer king?
I honestly had no issues with the trailer kings. I had over 5k on them if I remember maybe more and over some pretty crappy roads over the west coast and more.
No complaints and I have heard many have had good luck with them as well. Just always keep a eye on them and have them balanced. Rotate once a year.
just put four of the endurance on my trailer after suffering a blowout with the oem Rainier tires, china bomb tires.
I have about 2000 miles so far in mine and doing great.
I put Goodyear Endurance on my last RV. It towed so much nicer because of the improved tracking. As far as I’m concerned it’s the only trailer tire worth buying.
Yea I was surprised at the difference between the two. And yes tracking was noticeable but I also wonder if because the other tires are old and broken in so making them softer.
But again the side wall on these are stiffer..👍🏼
@@johnnysweekends my “Super Lucky Dragon 9000” tires lasted about 700 miles before a blow out. Single axel 3300lb RV. Not 20 minutes before I had checked the tires and air pressure.
So my experience is only between two extremes. The worst and so far my best.
Who knows how the two you were comparing would differ in experience.
I’d say try the other style next time. But if you like the Goodyear’s as much as I do, that’s a nope.
You have obviously never tried the max is m8008 or the duro ds2100. Both 3x better than the endurance could ever hope to be. Plus niether blows out near as much as the endurance tires do
In the same E rated tire??
@@johnnysweekends yep both e rated
I just bought the Carlisle Radial Trail HD. 117M load index/speed rating. Load range E1. These are 10ply rated. I couldn't pass them up. At the local tire shop they were $92ea compared to Goodyear Endurance @ $157ea. They're one of the higher rated trailer tires on the web. We'll see how they do.
I honestly don’t hear bad about them and they always get beat up on construction trailers. So for that deal why not. I’m sure they are fine just regular inspections before you leave and when you stop ..👍🏼
I’m a huge Goodyear fan, but if you want to never worry about tires again… go to 17.5s. I’ve given up on 15-16” tires since. Plus I have a F450 so I’m used to .5 commercial tires.
I like the idea but needing replacements can be hard to find on the road.
The price of those pigs are crazy like twice as much. Will they fit on a 16 inch rim?
What are you asking ..?
@@johnnysweekends I have 16 inch rims, what are the 17.5?
You’ll need a different rim to fit those. Once to go odd ball everything goes up a bit lol.
Goodyear babyy
Yes but my Carlisle tires on my horse trailer were made in China , that really pissed me off because I told the dealer that I wanted American made tires!
Ok Johnny...how about a 1 year update? I lost a TK coming back from beach. Thinking I'll go with the GY. Looks like you have a Cougar TT? Same rims etc. as my Cougar 5er
I had about 5500 miles on the GY before I sold the trailer. I have gone through two trailers since then as one was purchased with a vision that didn’t really go through and now I have my new jayco that has GY endurance on them. I still keep a eye on them all lol.
Do you use the recommended psi for the tires or the recommended amount by the camper company? My camper recommended 80 psi and I had two successive blowouts in hot weather with the original cheap tires. ( lesson learned about the tires). But I’ve never been really clear about what to do.
Rated psi for the trailer just like rated psi on car door panel.
#1 never buy China Bombs. #2 It's always better to have a higher speed rating. I never wear out Trailer tires. They sit alot. My goal is replace every 6 years.. I have gone 10 on passenger car tires. A tire over 6 years old is a spare tire. 30+ years of hauling stuff, never had a tire blowout.
I only know that Cooper Tires are actually made in the USA. All others are either made in China or owned by a Chinese company. Most dont research this. I have
Did you consider light truck tires? They’re probably more expensive but go through more rigorous certification process in the US. They’re usually also softer than trailer tires so transfer less of the road bumps into the trailer extending the life of the trailer…
I did look but for the normal recreational person it’s probably not a good choice. They can’t handle the hard jack knife turns because of the really soft side walls. So they can end up folding and pop off a rim.
Also most the time the same size tire and load in a LT will not have the load rating a ST tire has. So you get more carrying capacity with a true ST tire vs LT tire.
Hopefully the Goodyear Endurance provide good years of service like everyone claims.
@@johnnysweekends Makes sense. I guess the Goodyear Endurance is more/less a sure bet... and nothing more important than peace of mind when towing a trailer and going on vacation. Thanks for the feedback. Very much appreciate it.
Your welcome. I also looked into for a couple weeks and found that a designated trailer is actually best for these bigger heavier trailers. Light trailers ahh maybe would be fine.
If the carlisle are softer, won't that be better for the long term longevity of the interior? Lots of bouncing and jolting can't be as good for the screws and drawers, etc.
They are gonna rattle and get beat up regardless of tire choice but I would rather have a better tire, as a blow out could be more costly over all.
Damn I didn’t know Saul Goodman was an RV’er!
Never know where you’ll find a Goodman…👍🏼😁😉
So if I'm hearing correctly, you got 4 years out of your OEM Trailer King tires. How many miles would you say you got out of them? Did you ever have any problems with them? My current 7500 lb GVW travel trailer has Trailer Kings. I had them previously on a 4,000 GVW trailer and put 3,000 miles on them with zero issues. On the Facebook group for my trailer, there are many folks who say they are crap and need to be replaced immediately. I'm just trying to get a gauge on how yours did over the 4 years you used them.
They will be 4 years old in October. And in the video i mentioned I have about 7000 miles on them. Im the second owner of the trailer which is a early 2018 model so it came out in fall of I guess …??? The previous owner only used it 3 times and put about 500-1000 miles at most he thought.
I also went over a lot of rough roads to the coast from California so they are not easy miles.
These are also E load tires.
I check the air every time I left for a trip and inspected every stop doing a walk around.
My trailer also tows great so I assume I have weight distribution down pretty good and straight axles.
I agree everyone says get rid of the China bombs….. but I decided to keep them and keep a close eye. I said 3.5 to 4 years max or 10k miles. Well it’s over 3.5 years now so I swapped.
I think they looked great and even the tire shop said they looked fine. Probably could have done one more year.
Like most things we only hear the worst most times on FB and not enough good. Same as a truck.
I just started a FB group to but it’s small so not much for negative feedback yet so that’s good…🤣🤣
Thanks for the comment and thanks again for watching 👍🏼😀
@@johnnysweekends Very good info. Thanks for sharing. I check pressure every time I tow and keep it at the manufacturer recommended pressure (not tire max pressure). I've never had an issue and I've towed over some crappy roads in 100 degree plus temps. I'm also keeping my speed below the tire rating (81 mph). I typically drive 60-70. I think most folks who have trouble are towing too fast on 65 mph rated tires or are overloaded or over inflated.
I agree with all you said there.
I have a heavy trailer so mine says inflate to 80psi which is where I normally have them.
But yea I don’t tow those tire over 70 and normally don’t go over 66-67 much because fuel just disappears lol.
Thanks for the reply..👍🏼😀
The Goodyear endurance is actually a American made tire. Built in the USA.
So I’m gonna go with that.
And again I own all my stuff out right. Except my home but working on that. Thanks for being concerned about my financial well being…👍🏼
One thing not discussed….. Air Pressure, do you run them at?
It depends on your trailer. Not the tire
FYI, you need to fix that fender flare...that's a road hazard disaster just waiting to happen...
Lol I did right after I filmed this..😀👍🏼
Where's the comparison? A guy pushing on the tread was it?
That showed the difference in overall strength. That is why the goodyear weighed five pounds more.
The guy in the video noticed the stiffer goodyear gave more feedback to the tow vehicle but that suggests the tire should better survive potholes or hitting debris. The Carlisle will give a softer ride with less bouncing and feedback to the tow vehicle.
Yuuupppp…👍🏼😀
Should you balance trailer tires?
Yes over time they will wear uneven so it helps reduce vibration that can wear on trailer bearings and suspension. Balancing them will help keep them wearing even and provide a smoother ride. Not to mention keep core temps down and help prevent premature blow outs.
Yes you should
I bought Goodyear Endurance at Discount Tire and when they went to give them to me I noticed no weights, so I told them my receipt clearly shows I paid for balancing, so I made them balance them. Apparently some at that shop think trailer tires don’t need balancing, which is a disconnect from their sales side of the shop. So watch them closely if you can.
Nice, yes all tires need balance
@@randyfrommesaarizona6927 Something similar here.... I went with the Carlisle HD E1 at Discount Tire and asked that they be balanced. Parked the Passport 23RB outside a bay and coached the 2 installers on where to place the jacks. Sat in the shade with my dog to watch. Tires came off...then inside for the new rubber...and then came back out. Watched the first tire go on and saw that they had not been balanced. Had to get the mgr out of his office to get the balancing done. He assured me that "trailer tires don't need balancing". For optimum performance- yes, yes they do! Anyway, the tires went back inside for balancing and then out again and were installed. 10k on them now and they look great with even wear. Usually run 75-80 psi. BTW- I tipped the 2 installers a fiver each - they were working hard on a hot day!
In 2021 good luck finding Goodyear tires!
I just bought mine and made this video. And our local store still has some but not many since the travel season is kinda ending.
But I have heard they are getting a little harder to find
@@johnnysweekends called Goodyear and they are not making them, short material. Could a ask the price of each?
Ahh interesting my local store has 5.
Size 15 E load. $170 each. They are a little more spendy but everything has gone up. A couple years ago it was probably $140 a tire.
Trailer tires never wear out the tread, they just deteriorate and break down.
Yup most anyone never gets through the tread.
I like to replace my china bombs with Goodyear... But has any to sale?
Well I know around the nor cal area there was still some but the get more popular s spring comes
I don't see any balance weights...did you have the wheels balanced??
I always have them balance them. Although that trailer is gone but once a year rotate and balance.
Endurance are good except they wear down fast
Didn’t know. Seemed like many got good mileage. What is the approx mileage? Give or take?
@@johnnysweekends my first set of endurance tires lasted about 12,000 miles before I replaced them with new. They probably could have lasted another 5,000 miles.
How many years old??
@@johnnysweekends I believe they were on for 3 years. No issues at all with them.
Nice. 3 years is a little young still unless tread was wearing down.
But 10k is decent mileage on a trailer tire.
Why is he using a torque stick with a torque wrench?
Lol idk I often watch and wonder, should I say something or torque them again when I get home..🤔😂
@@johnnysweekends I'd ask and check the torque when you get home
If you are going to start the vid with Best Trailer Tire, then is should start with Sailun.
Sailun is good to but a little over hill unless you go G rated
1 question and one comment-
You said the Goodyear held air better than the Carlisle and you’d explain. Why does it hold air better?
If you believe a tire salesman, he puts weight on the two tires and says the Carlisle is softer so its not as good. At the end you say the trailer is a little stiffer than you’d like.
The tire from Goodyear supposedly holds air better due to the new inner liner technology. It resists air pressure losses while sitting and adverse highway bumps and potholes. So I said will see how they will do.
The squish test he did was interesting, I performed the same test and it was so much easier the press down on the Carlisle verses Goodyear. I did compress the Goodyear but it took twice maybe three time the force. And having both tires side by side you could tell the Goodyear just looked like it was put together better.
The trailer being stiffer, I never said I didn’t like it, I could just feel it more then before. Now with the tires being new like mentioned they may soften a little. And my trailer was also pretty empty when I went to the shop.
Although air pressure difference from old to new was minimal as when I left my house air pressure on old tires were 79 psi and 79.5 psi and new tires were 80.5 and 81 psi depending. Plus it had warmed up as the morning went. Is there that much difference in 2 psi …. Ahh minimal I would think.
Hope this clarifies a little for you.
Dude, take a breath. Holy cow you could of given Ron Popeil a run for his money.
Older video, my new ones are much different..👍🏼
Some say Carlisle Trail lines are still being made in china.. so nope for me, I wanna stay alive.
Yea I’m not a 100% sure on that but heard it as well.
But the trailer kings I had did great with over 7k on not nice roads. But I do feel the Goodyear are definitely a nice upgrade and hope to get the same or better. Either way in 4 to 5 years they will be swapped as well. Although I will probably switch trailers by then.
@@johnnysweekends Better be safe than sorry man. Wish we all could have more options other than current china bombs 😭.
Yea some manufacturers midgrade trailers on up are now coming with Goodyear or can be requested from what I have been hearing.
Almost all the airstream guys run them. I check every time I go to a campground or when I see one and they all run them lol.
I’m sure some don’t but most of the ones I see do.
@@johnnysweekends 😁 Good old Airstream better be equipped with branded tires for such price tags 😁 . For now Goodyear and maybe Michelin are our best bet I guess.

Carlisle made in China, enough said.
anyone that uses carlisle tires deserves blowouts. it should be against the law to even sell them. not counting the ones that blew out in use, i had one to blow out hanging on the spare carrier.
Wow well that’s crazy. We used them a lot in construction and beat them up and they held together pretty well..🤷♂️
But for me the GY endurance definitely seemed way better
