I have a 2012 36RL with ST235/80R16 Carlisle tires. Attached is a pic and I just noticed this problem today. What tires would you recommend?

Get rid of them now. If the wheel is rated for 110 psi, go to 235/85R16 G rated tire.

I have to get them back home, about 40 miles and will get new. My tires are rated for 85PSI

Titan,

Are you still offering these from your previous post?
I'll be in touch soon for the Goodyears.

Depends on tire:
215/75R17.5 H Sailun w/wheels, center caps and lug nuts. $1500
215/75R17.5 H Firestone FS560 w/wheels, center caps and lug nuts. $1800
215/75R17.5 H Goodyear G114 w/wheels, center caps and lug nuts. $2100
Plus Freight prox $100

I was able to sell my Used Westlake G and wheel for $600
There is no modification needed to go to 17.5's.

attached is wheel

yes, Offer is still good.

Dave, on the back side of the wheel is stamped the load capacity of the wheel. It will say 3,480 lbs., 3750 lbs., and or 80 psi or 110 psi. To upgrade to the 235/85R16 G the wheel needs to carry 3,750 lbs. and/or 110 psi. If not the wheel needs to be changed to upgrade.

If the wheel needs to be upgraded, you should go to the 215/75R17.5 H.

I Have a question about the quality of the Firestone. How do you feel about Firestone compared to Goodyear? If I order these and when they arrive to Naples, Florida are they already aired up and on the wheel and balanced and ready for me to put on? From that point it would be like just removing the old tire and wheel and putting the old one on right? This may all seem simple to you but I am a novice on these things. I just know I need tires pretty bad.

If I order them how long should I expect it to get them?

Dave

I think the Firestone and Goodyear are comparable. The difference is when I put Firestone on my trailer, I didn't have the deal on the Goodyear tire & wheel combination. The only thing I am offering is Goodyear & Sailun. The are assembled and aired up. They are not balanced.

Probably, 7-10 days from order for delivery.

Great, please one more time on the price of the Goodyear and the Sailun.
How good are the Sailun tires? I have not heard of them.

The Sailun is $1400, Goodyear $2150 including freight.
4 - 215/75R17.5 H tires, wheels, center caps & lug nuts.
The Sailun seems to be a quality product. There are no/few negative comments on the forums. They are a truck tire company. I am comfortable recommending Sailun.

For what its worth, I ran the Sailun S637 "G" 16" Tire on my last 5th Wheel for many miles coast to coast.
It is a Chinese made tire but the Saliun tires I had were a very good quality, heavy tire that wore well and provided me great service for a number of years.
Like Ron says other have had good experiences / service with them.
I am looking to upgrade to the 17.5 tire after I get the Disk Brake conversion done by Ron at the Rally in Shipshewana this summer, not sure if I am going with the Sailun or Goodyear tires when I upgrade, it will be a tough choice based on my previous experience with the Sailuns and current experience with the Goodyear G614s, (I have not had any problems with either tire)

I have heard all good things about the Sailun , , It is just hard to beat Goodyears reputation for standing behind thier product in the event of a blowout... So is I t worth $750.00 for that feeling ???

Titan Guy, did you get my PM?

This past Sunday our rear axle-street side Goodyear Marathon exploded while driving at 62 MPH on I-70. Thank goodness no one was hurt however several thousand dollars damage to our a Redwood. The exploding tire took out about 12-feet of the slide's sheet metal and wheel skirt. The tires had less than 2,000 miles and were in like new condition. Just two hours before I had checked the air pressure. The tire's side wall appears to have failed.That tire and the other three Marathon's are now in the recycle bin and replaced with new tires (Tow Max brand ST's as late Sunday afternoon in the middle of no where is not great for having choices). The new Titan brake disc, on that wheel survived without any damage. Our RV is now in Bremen, IN, just south of the Redwood Topeka plant for repairs and painting.

That's a shame ! Glad you were able to get rolling.... I would not keep those Tow max tires on too long , they do not have the best of reputations . . .
Did you save the blown tire to submit all the fee's to Goodyear ? They are usually great to deal with , and fast to pay.
