FastEagle said:Is your experience with Maxxis used as an OEM tire or replacement with a higher load capacity?
There are other brand names that have specs equal to or better than Maxxis. Most are OEM tires.
pz said:I don't know if this true, but Goodyear claims their Endurance tire is the only tire made in the USA. Personally I'm never purchasing a tire made in China ever again.
xrated said:The Maxxis 8008 tires are not China tires, but they are made in Thailand. Like I stated above, I'm on my third set on the different trailers and never ever an issue with them. The last trailer I had, I put 15-16K on them before I sold the trailer and they were still in good shape and looked like they could go another 10K without issue
In fact, my current trailer came with a set of "China bombs" on it. I towed the trailer home (375 miles), parked it and removed them and put a set of the Maxxis tires on, then sold the Trailer King tires.
FastEagle said:Maxxis would not recommend replacement tires with less load capacity than the OE tires provided. (Read the warranty). Almost all OEM tires used by Keystone in size ST235/80R16E have a load capacity of 3520#. Your maxxis 8008s provide 3420#.
