Goodyear Endurance are American made. More expensive than any of the other ST tires out there but based on my experience with other options well worth the money. The rest are mostly made in China. You got to ask yourself who do you want to support. A Chinese worker or an American worker. For those who choose the Chinese version, what if there was a Chinese option for the job that you make your living for. Who would you want people to support? It just surprises me that we spend $50 to $90 k for a bass boat and won’t spend the money on a tire made in the US. There you have my tire rant. THIS^

Look at all the boats that have trailers with 17" or 18" wheels. They all run car tires. Heck, even BassCat uses car tires on their standard wheels.

You just need to be within the load range.
Dang! Looking at discount, Maxxis would be $250 cheaper for my rig. Considering the lack of tread depth on the GY, I can't see me going that route.

Those Goodyear endurance are over rated for sure. I have had better luck with NAMA tires.

My 5 year old Goodyear Endurance have seen a lot of miles and been perfect so far "knock on wood". Love how they are rated for higher psi. Blows my mind people that don't run max psi.

Running Endurance on single tandem as well. My add on question is with these tires it says 50 PSI Max. What is the optimum PSI to running these for long distance trailering?

My new boat has Vision Marine Heavy Haulers. They seem well made.
