Ditched the cheap Trailer King tires today and installed a set of Made in the USA GoodYear Endurance load range E tires on my 311TH10 toy hauler this morning. I feel better having these tires on the RV, especially when I'm loaded down.

Purchased a set of those back in 8-17, over 10,000 miles on them so far with no issues, still happy with them. I think Goodyear finally got it right. I had the old Trailer King II's as well. Lost two of them on a trip to Glacier National Park, thankfully they didn't blow just tread separation. Tread looked round like a bicycle tire instead of flat all the way around. Happy Campin....

Another happy GY customer here. Put them on my car hauler after one of the OEM China bombs blew coming back from Vegas. Didn't want to have the same experience with the 5th wheel, so the OEM tires went away pretty quickly. I have probably 9,000 miles on them with zero issues.

So far, the Endurance is proving to be a decent tire. As a 15" wheel guy, I feel there are other options that are just as good, and cheaper. Were I heavier and in the 16" world, I'd probably be looking at the Duravis R-whatever succeeded the 250.

We had a blow out last month in our 2018 Connect C241RLK. Thank goodness we had just exited the interstate and close to a convenience store with a large parking area. The trailer experienced no damage. The Trailer Kings had about 1,200 miles on them. At our destination, we purchased a GY Endurance so we'd have a spare to get back home - a 60 mile trip. Replaced the other 4 with the Endurance 2 weeks ago. Leaving Saturday for a week and anxious to see if I notice a difference pulling/riding with the new tires.

I'd be interested in hearing how you like them after your trip to see if it tows or feels different with these tires. Ultimately I'll find out for myself but no longs trips scheduled until August for me. |

Ultimately I'll find out for myself but no longs trips scheduled until August for me. First trip about 130 miles - combination interstate and state roads. Hard to give numbers but I'd estimate about 20-25% better ride and handling. Have more peace of mind, though, with the upgraded tires. |

Over a Year on Goodyear Endurance tires. 4000 miles. No issues.
I had a problem with the original tires in less than a thousand miles. The tread separated from the casing on one tire. I think they were Trailer King brand.
