I've had ST's blow on me in past yrs with my old camper. So I wanted to try something different then the ST tires I've been use too.

My Rims are rated for 100 psi. I swapped my valve stems from rubber to bolt in. Not in attempt to run 110 psi that these are max rated for, but to allow me closer to my limit on my wheels. I'm running these at 90-95 psi to allow for rise in tire pressure as they warm up. That also still allows me a higher rated weight capacity then my axles are rated at. All in all I've very happy with my purchase.

I just double checked my rims and yes 100. I like the looks of the tires, I'll have to check them out when it's time for new ones. Please keep us posted on performance.

Quad,
Good looking tires. I see "King" on the side wall. Are they made by Road King, maker of the famous Blowmax?

Where did you buy them?

I had a Blowmax explode on me yesterday and am looking for 4 replacment tires.

No some of those pictures are side view of my old Towmax tires mounted. Showing difference between them. Not sure of the actual manufacture. The brand is Sailun. I bought these from Bob Sumerel tire, but I've been told Big O Tires can get them too. But my local one couldn't. I contacted Sailun via email and they have me a distributor locally and I found a dealer through them.

How's those tires doing for you?? I've got a raptor 3712 it being 3 axle you think a good 10 ply would be good enough or should I go with sailun tires and change wheels??

I'm not certain on the weight or capacities of your tires, axle, or camper. So I can't comment there. But I can tell you I've been extremely happy with my Sailun tires. I've put several thousand miles this year and they've performed great. Much more solid, stable ride. These are serious tires. Very thick!

Quad is your camper have 3 axles?? I assume the sailun you running is 235/85/16
o.d. 31.7-9.3 ?

Yes my current tires are a 235/85-16. They replaced a set of Towmax 235/80-16. My Laredo has 2 axles. Don't remember the axle spacing though.
