Do you have ST tires on your RV ?
Interesting information about ST tires.... note the speed rating - not that you should ever go faster than that with an rv, but margin of safety considerations
here's the full table about all @ goodyear: http://www.goodyearrvtires.com/pdfs/rv_inflation.pdf

My marathons are US made, 14" tires. I know that they had recently moved the plant back to the US, the tire guy had to order in a few sets till we got a matched by date US set in. This was two years ago. If you are trying to tow anything, regardless of tire, over 65mph, than you should be removed from the driving population.

Agree with you here! Was headed back from a NASCAR race at Texas Motor Speedway. Here we are just south of downtown FT Worth. I had it on 60 and he passed me like I was sitting still. 3 or 4 miles down the road he was pulled off to the side of the road and he had ripped the whole left side off the rig from blown tire. I stopped as I carry a floor jack, and asked how fast he was traveling. He said I always travel the speed limit plus 5. I didn't say anything. Well after the tire change I headed on down the road. 30 miles further, he passed me. I was doing my 65 with my ST tires and the speed limit is 75 in that area and he was everybit over that. Even if he had LT tires, which I think he did, still folks 75 and 80 is still to quick IMO pulling a rig like that, as it was not one of those double axle toy haulers but a triple. But thats my opinion.

LT stands for light truck. Obvious different is the speed rating and flexible sidewall compared to ST.
ST is strickly a trailer tire designed for the extra stresses of turning trailers that have axles that don't turn. ST has a max speed rating of 65 mph.

When I bought my 28ft 5th wheel from the original owner, it had 225 SD tires on it, which wore out quite quickly. When my tire shop replaced them, they were replaced with 225 ST tires.
I'm curious which are better.
