Castle Rock Tires

[Bsens07]

Just upgraded to Goodyear Endurance myself. Increased load range from C to D plus discount tires direct was $430/4 with free shipping. Plus $100 prepaid Visa gift card and sold my Castle Rocks to someone locally for $120. Got the new ones mounted for $30 so overall I think I made out great for the upgrade.

Also upgraded the bearings to Timkens made in the USA the same day and I am glad I did. Bought the trailer new last August and only had 4 trips on it with roughly 600 miles or so. Took off the last wheel and got to the bearing, the cap was never sealed fully from the factory and was full of dirt. Probably would have been disaster on our next trip to Delaware in 2 weeks.

Yep we have one now.
All the failures seemed to be a pizza slice shaped side wall blow out.

It seems like most of the folks having failures with the Castle Rock brand tires have a C or D load rating. I have a new Cherokee 274vfk that came with ST225/75R15 tires with a load range E rating. I've been searching online for over an hour and I can't find anyone that's had issues with the E rated Castle Rock tires.
