I had to look at the title on the Recent Threads said, "Sailing on sale". Wish Sailun did 15" tires.

I was thinking boat rides... Wish Sailun did 14” tires. Have Carlisles now.

Wish I could change it. I don't know how to edit that part.

I’ve done the same before and couldn’t figure out how to change it either.

Excellent tire and great price.. if properly cared for, towed at speed of 62 to 65 and covered tires when nit towing you’ll easily see 5 plus years of trouble free service minus any road hazard

You might need to clear your cache or cookies or something or have a teen ager tell you what is going on. (I hear the cache / cookies thing when I call any tech support so it isn't as if I know what I am doing!)

As an FYI i just bought 4 235/85 Sailuns from my local dealer for $744 including mounting AND balancing, disposal fee and new stems. That price was with me simply dropping the trailer off in the AM and picking it back up at lunch. No getting my hands dirty You may want to call around and check total pricing at your local dealer before going mail order. I like having that relationship with my local tire guy just in case I have a problem. I will concede that maybe I spent a few dollars more in total vs mail order but it couldn't have been very much.

If anyone is near a Big O tire shop, I picked up a set of 235/80s for $139/tire a few weeks ago there. Was just over $700 out the door which included balancing, high pressure steel stems, and road hazard. This was for 4 tires as I decided to not swap the spare yet.

Big O used to be NTB. They also carry their own line of tires and those tires are generally the sale items.

That’s seems like a good deal. I’ll have $698 into them. I don’t usually care for Walmart, but they are everywhere. If I get tires from them along with road hazard, I should be able to get the tire fixed within a half hour of just about anyplace we travel.

The only issue you'll need to consider with WalMarts is the issue of "we don't work on trailers"... They'll repair/replace your trailer tires, but they won't send someone "out back to jack up your trailer to remove the wheels"...
I also bought my Carlisle ST tires from WalMart, but had to take the wheels to the store in the back of my truck to have the new tires mounted. That said, the WalMart in Pineville, LA would work on travel trailers "out back" but not many of them will do that.
You're right, WalMarts are "usually only a few miles from any place on earth" so they are conveniently located. They just don't have the facilities to work on trailers and won't do the job "out back" in most of their stores.

That is true. I have always had to take the wheels to them. Bonus is I know they are torqued right when I get them back home. I have trust issues.

Not sure I want Walmart "qualified technicians" doing much more than changing oil on my stuff, up front or out back & been to a couple that were under qualified for that job!

I just today changed out the original equipment trailer king tires on my 2018 Cougar 27rls. After reading so many threads about blow outs with the trailer kings, hubby and I decided they were too risky. Put on the Goodyear Endurance tires and although speedy, at least we feel safer.
