The attack of the Chinabomb tires

[Sportsdad60]

Has anyone had a blow out on Westlake G rated tires (110 PSI) on the Solitudes?
I'm pushing 10k miles on ours next week.....

So far, I've dodged the bullet on tire blowouts, but the factory tires did not stay on either the previous or current trailer for very long. My Reflections has 16' Cooper LTs on it, a carry-over from my last trailer. I had these on a Keystone Outback, but when I traded for the Reflections, I swapped them back, and sold the Endurance tires that came with it.
I have read countless comments about ST tires being better because of stiffer sidewalls. I have not found that to be true. Even when the ST tires are aired to the max cold pressure, they still look like they are running low. Not so with the LTs. I'll never buy another set of ST tires.
I also do not waste time trying to determine what pressure to run based on axle weight. The tires are designed to run at max cold pressure. To me, that allows less heat build up and helps with tire longevity.
As always, YMMV... Literally

I agree that ST tires don't necessarily have stiffer sidewalls than LT tires. But Sailun "G" rated ST tires are a cut above. I don't know that I agree with
the statement that "The tires are designed to run at max cold pressure.". The inflation tables are there for useful purposes. I use them and have found
that I get a better ride using them. But as you say: YMMV.

Had 4 Sailun S637 tires installed 2 months ago in Lewiston, ID to replace our Westlakes, which were cracking on the sidewalls. All 4 Sailun tires say “Made in Vietnam,” and dated 3120

Hey Chip,
I put my Sailuns on a year ago and gone only about 10 K since but loving these Vietnamese beauties.
Yea, mine were built there as well, but I checked out their manufacture process and they build using ISO 9001 protocols for tolerance so that results in a great tire.
I can see the difference in sidewall flex/ rigidity when parking.
I installed mine wt billet aluminum valve stems and pressure up to 100 psi only.
I weigh in at 11.4 K loaded on scales.
