Some people might not like the Sailun tire on account of the cheap price compared to the Goodyear.I bought Sailuns nearly 4 years ago and i can buy 4 new Sailuns today cheaper than i did then. Sailuns now have a very good track record and have them compared to the much more expensive Goodyear is a great compliment to the Sailuns.
Several people have complained that their new Montanas were delivered with Rainier tires when all the ones on the lots had Sailuns on them. It was for the reason you mentioned. They ran out of Sailuns. After they complained, Keystone sent each of them 5 Sailun S637s and paid to have them put on. They've been showing up on Montanas over the last year periodically and Tredit Tire is a msjor supplier to the industry now. In years past, they've supplied tires for boat, horse, car and flatbed trailer industries. My partner just completed the order of their new Montana yesterday and asked specifically for the rep to be called and asked for Sailuns. I kind of understand where they are coming from as the Sailuns have a great track record and the verdict is still out on the Rainiers.
