I put on a new set of Towmax tires on my rig last summer before a big (for me) trip of 1200 miles in July 95º heat.

Had I read up on this site on Towmax before I left I likely would have went back and had the dealer pull them.

As it was, I made the trip just fine and the tires preformed just fine in the heat. I did not have them anywhere close to max load capacity.

I did some research on Towmax following my trip and reading the thoughts on them on this forum and found out that they are made by the same parent company that makes the beloved Saliuns, though I assume it might be a plain old Chevrolet vs Cadillac thing (both GM vehicles) but the Towmax tires to have an outstanding warrantee and I suspect their newer generation tires are better than those that earned them their bad reputation.

That being said, I will be keeping a close eye on them going forward and remove them at the first sign of abnormal wear or weather checking or cracking.
