Probably going to replace them after 1 more short trip next week with the Sailun 85 series tires. I figure around 3k lbs sitting on each tire so I would like to get another 650 lb. capacity on my new tires (4,400 vs. 3,750).
If I lose a tire, I would like to be that much less overloaded on the remaining tire on that axle until I can pull over to deal with it.
The additional height isn't much of a concern with my truck and the current setup (Reese Goosebox with B&W offset ball). Also have the factory air assist rear suspension which allows me a 1" lower "alternate trailer setting" for the rear suspension air bags.
Sits nice and level with 5-6" of truck bed clearance. Gotta say I've been happy with the Goodyears though. Zero issues in 5 years...  |
You won't regret the Sailuns ,and you will save a few dollars .
