time to replace the tires on my Monty 2015 353RL. I've been to Walmart and Discount Tires to investigate Sailuns, Hankooks, and Carlisles 12 ply and higher. Seems the Walmart guy really didn't know anything. I told the DT guy I wanted nothing made in China. Surprise! all of those tires mentioned above have manufacturing plants n China, although some had additional plants in Vietnam, Korea, Germany and other locations. The DT guy said "We don't know what factory (country) they come from until we get them. Could be anywhere". Unless I wanted to go with a $500+ Goodyear, it's a dang crapshoot! Any wisdom from the Monty Masters?
