Hi folks!Anyone have any experience or reviews on Karrier 5th wheel tires? I know they're "not from around here", but I'm looking to replace the Blowmax rubber on my soon to be mine 5'er..Any help greatly appreciated!

If within your weight limitations, go to LT (light truck) tires. Michelin RIBS are a good example. Avoid any tire made in China, which makes most all ST type tires. I just suffered a blowout on my 5er three weeks ago. My China Bombs had less than 5k miles on them, I'm lightly loaded, checked pressure that morning and have a TPMS installed. The only thing it did was confirm that the explosion I heard was my front axle driver side tire.

Here is a link to a story that doesn't sound to good for them...

Cardinal RV Club • View topic - Karrier Load Star Tires - FYI

Seems to me I remember that Kenda trailer tires developed a rep for serious problems some time ago--maybe better now? I personally would look at Maxxis...
