The difference between those tires is incredible. My next set will be Sailun for sure. I may order a set before I have a problem like some have had with theirs.

Just scored a Hensley on Craigslist for $700. We had a little sway with an 800lb golf cart loaded, so we'll see if this does the trick. I'll give a report when installed.
