Sailun truck tires
Hello,
Just bought from simple tire and tire king installed the Terramax AT, and if any one wants to know if there any good, they seem to be well made. There actually quiet on the road even being an all terrain tire. Minimal balance and ride better than my Nexen tires that they replaced. Got them on sale.

Due to the reputation if the Sailun S637 ST on the campers last year I put the Terramaxx 775/70/18 on my 2012 F350 4x2. I have put about 30,000 miles on them and am VERY happy with the outcome not to mention they were only $640 out the door to include mounting, balance, and alignment too for set of 4. The way they currently look to the naked eye I should get about 50,000 miles before replacement.Quiet and smooth ride!

Why would you give any of your hard earned money to Chinese? Especially what’s happening now. I’d rather spend the extra money & buy AMERICAN like Goodyear. Screw the chinese

As of late, they have been a superior tire for half the price.

You got the hard earned money correct, and yes it is "MY" hard earned money. Its not so much the extra money for me, its the quality of the tire . I don't want Goodyear tires period, there reputation is terrible. If you can suggest another G rated tire made in the US "WITH" the same reputation ,and track record of the Sailun S637's for our fifth wheels feel free to do so.
Screw the Chinese, can you honestly tell me there is nothing you have bought that is not foreign made in China , or elsewhere. You know what they say about "Living in a glass house ,and throwing rocks"
This is twice you have posted your sentiments, everyone understand now how you feel .

You might want to change your attitude towards the Chinese, at least for the time being,read this morning they donated 1000 ventilators to New York .

From consumer reports!Complicating national pedigree further, manufacturers might not build all their models exclusively in any one country. The Goodyear tires we tested were built in Canada, Chile, Germany, and the U.S. Michelin tires were manufactured in Italy, Spain, and the U.S., but none came from France. And the tires we tested from Italian tire maker Pirelli were made in Mexico and Russia. Hard to find tires made only in the USA!!

Because I have had blowouts on my 1 ton srw more than once. I had 2 blowouts on my Mobile Suites that cost me over $3000 each time. I have not had good experience with Goodyear’s.
I have been Rving for over 40 years. Living full time over 10 years.
I am only concerned with getting a quality product for my money.

I did the same thing but only needed two for the truck. Was able to get them in two days from a local tire dealer in Bonita Springs Fla. With the new tires on the front traveled 1400 miles home. Handled great, tracked great. They do seem to be a little noisier than the Michelins I had replaced, but not bad at all . $315.51 out the door for the 2 tires mounted, balanced, on the vehicle, and old tires disposed of.

I usually agree and usually do, but I put so many miles on this truck now I can't see paying 40% more for the tires I've been running for 18 years now. I may in fact go back, but when the US brands now don't last nearly as long as they used to, I thought I would try these. It very well bite me, but it was worth a shot.

I use Michelins. Got them at Costco. Two things to know about buying tires from Costco: 1) they don't do alignments and 2) they will not sell a tire that is not correct for your vehicle.

I never get an alignment with new tires. Total waste of money. If your tires are wearing evenly and the veh. drives fine why do you need it? I worked in a couple of shops where the alignment guys were crooks. They would lean on the car to throw the alignment off while it had the heads in place to make it look like it needed an alignment. More often than not the car or truck was worse off when they were done with it. In over 60 years of driving I can only remember getting 2 or 3 alignments. Never had a tire wear problem.

Michelin does not manufacture a trailer tire in diameters less than 17.5" and considers it a misapplication to use their LT tires to replace an original equipment ST tire.
