Sailuns are a good set. We are on our 2nd set of Sailuns since October 2017.
We have a Heartland Road Warrior 427.

depends on which 16" (run of the mill load E or a commercial grade all steel ply carcass load G) tires are needed ......and current trailer wheel load and pressures capacities.
Makes a huge difference

I just replaced mine with Hercules H901s. Well made heavy tire. I have been reading a lot lately about some of these guys going to LT tires. I won't be one but it is an option.

Are you replacing them because they are worn out or because they are now 5 years old?
It's hard to go wrong with any of the suggested tires.

They are over six years old and although three of the four are in good shape one is showing cracks.

Sailun 637, they are 110 PSI load range G tires 4400 lb rated tires. I ran them for 6 years , they are good for high miles and heavy loads. I put 15000+ miles on them still had 1/2 the tread depth left. A friend of mine has Endurance GY tires the tread is very soft and your lucky to get 15,000 miles out of them .

Assuming your axle weight is less then 4000 lbs per tire you dont have to run 110psi. I set min to 100 psi cold every 2 months. I did a 17.5" wheel upgrade and still have 637 on those wheels.

Step up to G rated tires. You will be amazed at the difference in tires.

Do you remember who you bought them from? Looking for a reliable seller that won’t rip me off.
