Use this as a learning experience. After replacing Marathons four times, when the fifth tire, which was the first one replaced the year before, failed with half the tread separated, I put on the spare and vowed to never put on another Chinabomb. I found, I think a Discount Tire, got a six month interest free deal, and had all five tires replaced with G614's, about $1900. I have never regretted this as the security of these tires is well worth it. This was in December of 2013, after a little over 12,000 miles on the rig. We now have over 40,000 miles on the rig, and the tires are doing well.
