    Looking the replace the ST235/80R16 LR-G

    Looking the replace the ST235/80R16 Load Range-G tires on the Solitude ST-310. I was looking at the GY Endurance on their site and only saw load range E available (80 psi). Does the Endurance exist in Load Range G?

    Also found the Sailun tires in Load Range G and they seem to have a big following. Any comments or other recommendations would be appreciated.

    I just bought 4 Sailun 235/85-16 "G" tires to replace the Westlake "G" rated tires that came on our Momentum. I wouldn't buy anything else for our trailer. They look to be a bit of overkill for your application though. You could be looking at around 12,000 lbs. on the axles. Even the 235/80 are up around 3,700 lbs. capacity, and they have very stiff sidewalls.

    FWIW, I had a set of Sailun tires on our last trailer and they still looked good and performed well after 6 years.

    The Endurance is a load range E tire only. Look at the Sailun S637s or the Goodyear G614s.

    Have had 235/85-16 on my 310GK for the past 2 1/2 years with no ill effects, and are wearing well. I adjust air pressure according to the weight of the trailer. I did change out the equalizers to Morryde CRE 3000 & their HD shackle kit-not that it matters as the tires are unsprung weight.

    As others have said, I put on Sailun tires this fall 235.80.16 LR-G to replace the Westlake. I bought them from Simple Tire and had them shipped to the RV park we were at.

    I know some, like my S-I-L put truck tires on their 5th wheel because they are cheaper. I don't like that idea as truck tires do not have the same side wall stiffness a heavy trailer like a 5th wheel needs.
