Carlisle Radial Trail HD are good trailer tires I had on my previous TT. I'd have them on this one now if I had listened to the little voice and changed them out before my last trip. After a Westlake blowout I was in a spot and found 4 Goodyear Endurance at a vendor near the campground.

I agree with you about the Westlakes. Grand Design now equips their rigs with Goodyear Endurance, which is probably the most popular choice. I bought my 303 new and dumped the Westlakes immediately and replaced them with the Goodyears. There was a video a while back with a Westlake next to a Good year, both off the wheels, and the guy was able to press the sidewall of the Westlake with his thumb, and couldn't do the same thing with his entire hand on the goodyears.

I have a 2019 RL2500 with Westlake tire on them. Currently I have about 9000 miles on them and they are fine. I do not overload my camper, I usually drive around 65 mph, and I do not hit any curbs. I regularly check the tire pressure before and during trips. You will get a lot of bad and good information on them that is for sure. I would just keep an eye on them and when they look like there is an issue I would replace them. Good luck!

I though same way about Westlake tires on our camper until I had blow out on busy Interstate 85 outside Atlanta and was saying to myself, "You should have changed these China bomb tires out before now". Thank God for those Georgia Highway Hero Units with their large flashing lights that diverted traffic to other lane while we changed tire - he may have saved my life.
