I've had S637's on mine since I brought it home (yr old used) and swapped out the TowMax's. Sold them for 200$CDN, paid 1200$CDN m&b, I took the wheels up one at a time to swap them. I have about 20,000km on mine.

They are stiff and heavy, I find the trailer rides rougher. A blow out on cheap tires will cost more than buying new tires.

One thing you need to check is your wheels. Make sure that they're rated for 110psi and you will need to use bolt in valve stems. I have the T02 wheels and they're rated for 110 psi but the valve stems were only rated at 80 psi. I bought short bolt in stems but had to grind a socket down to be able to tighten them. Standard socket wouldn't fit down in the hole of the wheel.

Try finding a valve stem socket that plumbers use. It's thinner and the valve stem does not need to be torqued down.

If you do torque it to specs it's like 8 -10 in lbs

Right, I meant it would not damage the thin socket I described.

Would like to install goodyear g614's but don't know if the aluminum wheels can handle the 110 psi the 614's require.
If you call TreditTire & Wheel, they can tell you if your wheels are alright for 110psi.

They supply Jayco with wheels and tires.

I also went with the Sailun 14ply tires on my 2012 351RLTS, feels more confident now way less bounce than the Goodyear 10 ply!!
