Installed Sailun 637s on my Montana in April 2016 for $148.00 per tire plus mounting/balancing at Big O Tires. Took 1 day to order/receive the tires from their distributor. Tires were balanced just like the 2 sets of tires on my previous SOB. Great tire IMO!

Big O also stocks the Sailuns here where I live. They are becoming more available all the time.

If someone is worried about not being able to get a tire while traveling i suggest you buy 5 tires so that you would have a sailun on the trailer at all times and bring a loose tire from your old set to use as spare till you get home or you could order one and probably get it in 3 days if you are in the same spot that long. That's what i do anyhow. Like previous post said, they are becoming more available all the time.

I just replaced my 5 GY Marathons today with 5 Sailuns today. Ordered them Monday and got them today. Simple Tire dot com even gave me a military discount!
Almost all ready to make the trip from Northern Texas to Miami in a few weeks!

I just replaced my tires with the Sailum ST235/80R16. The tire installer only put in 80 psi in each according to the sticker on the side of camper. I contacted Sailum and they sent the load inflation chart for the tire. At 80 psi the load is 3420 lbs which is more than adequate. Any thoughts on the need to inflate to the max of 110 lbs with a load rating of 4080 lbs. Will the tires be damaged if I only run at 80 psi?

Hopefully you have 6,000 lb axles, and if so, your rig is rated to only have about 2,600 lbs on each wheel, so 80 psi is perfect. Your wheels need to be rated to be 110 psi to be able to inflate over the 80 psi, so you are good. I have heard that some have only 5,200 lb axles, but not sure about your's.

Just checked, my axles are the lower rated 5,200lb, the wheels have 3200lbs max load on the spoke then the next spoke over has the max load as 3580lbs. No pressure is marked anywhere on the wheel.I'll stay at the 80lb inflation. Thanks

I am trying to see if my 2015 343RL wheels will take a g rated tire. My wheels are 6 lug 16inch and 6 inch wide. The only stamp on the wheel on the inside says max load 3580 but no where shows anything for tire pressure. What wheels do you have on your high country. Thank you

The wheels on your High Country are not strong enough for Sailun 637s. Plus they will be way overkill for your 6K axles. Go with a good E rated LT tire (Michelin Ribs, Duravis 250, etc) and you will be fine.

Spoke to tire dealer Les Schwab, who said you could run Sailun at 80 PSi. He also said LT tieres Will work but may heat up because of deeper tread. Saliuns less expensive than the Michelin but Saliun may be overkill. With HC may be a good ST tires will be fine.
