We purchased our new/used '10 3665 three months ago and it came with Marathons. We'd had the same exact tire on our previous 10k max gross 27' TT and never had any problems up to when we traded it in (5 yrs. use, 7 yrs. tire age). After seeing the posts when maxed out weight-wise (new/old is 15.6k max gross and all 4 tires were 5 yrs. old), I got new Firestone tires on Friday (none more than 6 mos. old!). Only problem was the place that had the best price installed was a car joint and I had to bring the wheels in after jacking everything up. Not a terrible issue doing that, but it wasn't until I got everything back home late yesterday that I found the installer had removed the metal valve stems and put on rubber ones. When I've more time I may describe the fun of getting 80 lbs into those wiggly things. I'm waiting until Monday when my tempers down to call them.
