Freestar F-108 trailer tires

Need the good the bad and the ugly on Freestar tires. Who makes them? Issues known about them. Spent 1 hour on Google, no reviews. Would love to hear experiences with them.

Thanks, mine came on a 2013 KZ Spree TT. Need to make a long trip in Sept. Think I'll swap them out before then. I can rotate them to smaller utility trailer.

Care and maintenance of tires (proper inflation mostly) is a much better indicator of tire life than brand. I know a lot of Made In China stuff is cheap, but FYI almost all trailers tires come from there... including Maxxis, which many folks seem to recommend over "China bombs" perhaps not realizing Maxxis are Chinese too?

Anyway I would not dump a set of OEM tires just because they are Freestar or any other brand. Even stuff made in China still has to meet certain safety/quality guidelines before being imported into the U.S.... especially vehicle-related items that are governed by NHTSA, although that may not apply to trailers.
