Sailun 16" 637's

My S 637's arrived this afternoon, sitting on the concrete outside the garage door. :-). Probably get them mounted in the next few days. No comparison when looking at them verse the Keystone installed Trail Kings. Just like getting a better insurance policy.

Picking up my new 3160 next monday. I'm going to order 4 new Sailun 637s right off the bat. I'm hoping my installer will trade the 4 "new" tires for mounting/balancing on the Sailuns.

I'm hoping you will be just as satisfied with the Sailuns as we have been. With this hot weather, we've seen heavy RVs on the side of the road almost every day with blowouts and am thankful every time that we got the Sailuns. We are at Maumelle in Little Rock and a fairly new Montana pulled in beside us - I asked if he was on the forum - answer, "No" - then asked if he was satisfied with his rig. He said yes except all the tire problems he's had - five blowouts in 2 years. Looked a little closer and he still had Marathons.

Paul I hope you politely educated him on RV tires. :-) You would think after awhile they would have started doing some research on the tire issue. Enjoy your new tires, I know I am a lot more comfortable driving down the road with my G-rated tires than I was with the Trailer Kings.

I did the best I could but he really didn't seem interested. His response continued along the line of blame Keystone, these tires are what they recommend, etc. He actually seemed more discouraged about RVs in general. It's a shame when something like a better tire could radically change his attitude. I think I remember Lynwood has encountered this also with those who just don't want/need your advice. Again I say, thank you for this forum.

Nobody wants to hear they need to spend more money and they particularly don't want to hear that a subject (tires) that they thought they understood is now an issue on their new RV. It, at times, turns into kill the messenger.
