Replacing the tires on my trailer. Went 10 years with zero issues with my Goodyear Marathons, before one shredded at the end of last year. Talking with a local tire shop, apparently the Marathons are now made in China, alone with almost everything else. They were $25 more a tire and though he said he'd happily put them on, said he thought they were the exact same thing as the Commando tires, just different badging & saw no reason to pay the extra cash.
ONLY names in my size locally have been Taskmaster, Carlisle, Cooper Super Max, Commando & the Marathons....
I'm not ordering anything in, so any strong feelings?
