Provider f835 st 235/85r16

[shov]

We are in the market for a new 5er, and the unit we are looking at comes with the Provider ST in the title. Does anyone have these tires? Good or Bad first hand knowledge with them? Reason I ask, I had the dreaded towmax and had a severe blowout that tore up quite a bit of the sheet metal surrounding the wheel well, and the new rig is a full body paint and don't want to go through that again... TIA

No experience, just some info;

The Taskmaster Provider (LRG) is one of the new breed of ST tires from over there. The ST235/85R16G has a load capacity of 4080# @ 110 PSI. Lots of manufacturers are building them under existing name brands or new ones. Most of the large discount tire chain stores will have one or two of them in various brand names. All that I have seen or reviewed have speed letters M or N.

The LRG provides a very nice amount of load capacity reserves for 7000# GAWR axles.
