Ya, I have no expectations of ever seeing actual data, but I am not going to confront people and say they are not telling the truth. I just hope some learn that anyone can make a claim but what is needed is actual evidence.

I researched and found many good things about these tires and they stacked up well against many "Name" brands. We are new to class A rving and just plan occasional trips..maybe 5 or 6,ooo miles a year. Thoughts on these please.
Sailun makes a quality tire, comparable with Michelin tires IMO.
I replaced Goodyear G670 RV tires with Sailun S637 truck tires 3 years ago. IMO the 22.5" Sailun truck tires ride better and are quieter.
I walked around truck stop lots noting steer tire brands before purchasing, and Sailun was gaining popularity for HDT's 4 years ago, even more so in Canada.
Make sure your tires are inflated to the Federal Tire Placard inside your MH if you do not have 4-corner weights yet.
