Wow, the best **** tires I have ever had that came OEM on a new vehicle which finally need replacing after about 40K in 3 years. This one is gonna hurt. Free shipping indeed LOL.

Too many geezers, self appointed moderators, experts, and disappearing posts for me. Enjoy. How many times can the same thing be rehashed over and over?

There are plenty of great tires made here in the USA. Every time you buy more junk from China it cost American jobs. You made your money here spend it here and keep Americans working.

1. You did not answer my questions.

2. If there were "plenty of great tires" specifically made for trailers in the U.S., there would not be a market for Sailuns. That is part of Economics 101.

3. In the absence of factual data, you are presenting a false argument by stating that Sailuns are "junk".

4. Free speech includes rendering your own opinion. It does not include telling others how they should spend their money.

Not sure he is aware of anything , if he has that to say about the Sailuns

Good find . Yes the Sailun have that pretty aggressive All Terrain tread , much the same as the Cooper AT3 or the Toyo AT2's .


That is why I am selecting their alternate model which has the HT style tread pattern: Sailun Terramax HLT 245/75R -17



I prefer the AT's , and Terramax will be my next.

We have the die hard Michelin ,and Goodyear fans on here, but secretly looking into the Sailuns :B

Not poor money management, that was humor. Something that is lacking in a big way on RV.net.

FWIW I grilled up some filets last night I hand cut from a nice whole loin. Would of rather had a ribeye.

Not 100% sure where Verde Valley is and not going to google it. Spend some time in SW and Central PA, driving mostly 2 lane state and county roads in the Allegheny mountains, then slap your head when you don't make it to 40K with a set of tires.

Do they tar and chip roads every summer with limestone chips in Verde Valley, essentially making them 20 grit sandpaving?



Speaking of money management , have you checked out the Sailun Terramax AT's , you could afford a whole lot more of those filets, yes I prefer ribeye ๐Ÿ™‚




I actually looked at those but they have a slightly more aggressive tread than I was looking for. I wanted another set of the Bridgestone Duravis M700s that came OEM on my 15 GMC 2500. No way was I forking out $267 each, Tirerack has them on sale right now for $245 lol.

Anyway I picked up a set of them takeoff on Ebay with less than 2K miles for around $125 each inc shipping. Came Fedex yesterday and you can hardly tell they were ever mounted. Still have most of the injection nibs.

Can do the 2" thick ribeyes now.

I have about 2 to 3/32" of usable tread left (before I get down to the 2/32 minimum) on the OEM General rear tires on my DRW 2016 F350.

Based upon the excellent performance the Sailun 17.5's (that I put on the 5th wheel this year), I am planning to go with the Sailun Terramax HLT 245/75R -17.

At $587.96 for a set of 4 from Simple tire, and free shipping, the cost difference pays for a set of Centramatic wheel balancers.



They will catch on, some just don't get it. A lot of the die hards fought the Sailun S637's , and we know how that went.
