We also run lots of these for the last 4 to 5 years. 4 10 ply out the door for $390.

These are my 4th choice.

don't know if it's a good price or not. I had 4 of these 235-85-16 10 ply installed on my dump trailer for $410.00 out the door.

On new trailers you are pretty much stuck with Chinese junk ST's..A couple of guys I camp with had custom designed trailers built and the only option were crap ST's...They knew going in 1-1.5 years later they will have to be replaced...Pathetic actually..I suffered the same thing. A high quality trailer with junk tires...2 years and $400 radials later, I'm good for a while.

Yea, I never appreciated just how bad it has become. My flat bed at 15 yeas old has 4 Carlisle tires that I never had a problem with. Now with that being said they are made in USA or Canada and that IS the difference. I can appreciate why Chris has such a issue with china junk, after having a bunch of failures it will not happen if I can avoid it. The 2 brands I mentioned are the only considerations. I will order a set of Greenballs for my new trailer or pilots if I can find them. CJ

China sucks. But we keep buying their crap. I personally try not to but sometimes that's all I can find. Getting ready to buy new pair of boots and will cost me 100 bucks more for American but that's what I'm buying. Screw china.

Did you get these online or locally? Looking for replacement for LT235/85R16 on horse trailer.

Created a thread here recently about 5 year old DURO brand Chinese ST trailer tires that were cracking like mad...even with low mileage, light loads, and being covered and protectant applied to the sidewalls. Probably the worst POS tires I ever had.
