I am sorry to say I only have ~33000 miles on my G614s and have worn less than maybe 1/3 of the tread with absolutely no problems. I guess these things are pieces of crap the way people describe.

There has been a lot of discussion with the 614's and whether to use load inflation tables or not. Many members put them at their rated 110 psi due to some abnormal edge wear that many have seen (Ozz included). We have one of the heavier rigs and I inflate to about 105 psi cold. As mentioned, many members swear by the 110, but ultimately the choice is yours. If you do not have a tire pressure monitoring system, I would stongly advise that one be considered.

Sorry, was just going by the weight you stated but yeah you probably got 7k lb axles and at the gross of that trailer sounds like the only choice you have is G rated tires. The ST tires they put on it would be at their max, kind of cheap of Keystone to even sell it with those tires and that gross weight,,,,no, not cheap, irresponsible is more like it.....Even at that rate LT tires would have out performed the Marathons.....lol
