DOH, thank you for catching that. Yes it looks like it is a thread on Goodyear Marathon and not Endurance. So Sorry. So I guess I will still be trying the Endurance.

Did my first trip with the new Goodyear tires. First thing so noticed was the weight difference of each one. I took my China bombs out of the the bed of my truck. I noticed when they bounced, the side walls were flexing (wtf) where the goodyears were very solid. I couldnt believe the sidewall would flex from an empty tire bouncing.

I went from 235-80-16 to 235-85-16. The increase in size gave me several hundred pounds more payload per tire netting me 600lbs over my GVWR. As I had stated early, they are also speed rating N good for 87 mph.

So with about 13k behind me, I was doing 70-75mph (70mph speed limits) and my wife turned to me and said, the ride is so smooth I can't even tell the trailer is behind us. I was in complete agreement, the trailer goes down the highway so nicely. I also had them balance each tire for less vibration.

Highly recommend this upgrade to everyone!!

I think they are made in Montgomery, Alabama, along with the G614

No the marathons are made in China. The only ST tire made in the USA is the Goodyear endurance made in Ohio.
