Tire Dilemna

I have 205/75/14 load range C tires on my camper now that need to be replaced. I want to move up to load range D, which rules out Maxxis since they don't make a D tire in 14". I was planning to put on Carlisle HDs but now Goodyear has the Endurance option. I can't really wait...this is the year they need to be done so there won't be much time to see how the Endurance will pan out. Any opinions???


PS My alloy wheels will handle up to 80 psi, so I am all set bumping up to 65 psi D load tires.

I saw the Goodyear Endurance on the Tire Rack .com website. If they can get them there should be someone who can near you or put them on for you.

I like the N speed rating, 87 mph, just in case I get trapped in traffic and am forced to go over 62.

I have those Rainer cheapo tires on my 2017 but will be replacing them as soon as I can afford it.

Be sure to rate them if you get Goodyears to help all the rest of us decide if they live up to the advertising.

I've read the praise on maxis tires and am sure they are excellent. But I would have no issues with Carlisle or the new GY either. I simply take care of my tires, keep them covered when not in use and always maintain the psi. Then regardless of treadwear I replace every 4 seasons. On my TT, utility trailers or boat trailers I've not had a blow out yet. I'm sure it will happen some day, but I think most are due to tire care, over loading and speed.
