I upgraded my 2018 Durango 1500 281RLT to 16" wheels and Sailun S637 tires, and just got back from a 3500 mile trip. I don't need the weight capacity but I like the HUGE weight safety factor I now have, plus I can run up to 75 miles an hour. Much of our trip was above 65mph and I wasn't worrying about my tires. Plus it raised the rear of the trailer about 1.5" to help level out the trailer when hooked to the truck. I run my tires at 100psi, and so far I'm very happy with them.

Keith My brother's Reflection FW he picked up earlier this year, has Sailuns on it. Even with a 14k GVW, that was a huge upgrade the previous owners did. While he's not planning on traveling much, if at all, in it, having those tires really gives him a leg up on safety. I must say, that I'm part of the "slow 'n steady" crowd, when towing. I see these guys (mostly in THs) blowing past me at 75-80 mph and wonder how deep their pocket =really= are since they're likely only getting 7-8 mpg, even with a diesel. When I slowed down from 65 to 62 mph, I picked up an average of 1.5 mpg. Less stress since almost everyone else is passing me, too. I just plan for a little extra time on the road. Lyle

Put a set on about 2 months back, tire dealer said that's all the ranchers run any more, he keeps a big supply and dropped the Goodyear line. So far they have been great 4" of snow and heavy winds since I've had them. Tracked well in both and still playing with tire pressure, running 90 currently.
