I recently read that Goodyear has released a trailer tire they have labeled the "Endurance", and are of US manufacture. Anyone heard of them or know anything about them?

I have a set on order for our Airstream. They are getting good reviews in that community. Made in the US, 10 ply rating.

Had one installed on my spare two weeks ago after a blow out heading to Powell. Looks like a top of the line tire for trailer tires, it's about time a decent tire was made, I will be installing all new soon.

We have four Goodyear Endurance tires on our trailer. Two purchased in Colorado and two in Mississippi, as our other tires blew out one after another on our tow from Washington State to Florida! So far so good!

I now find that I won't be able to use the endurance as Goodyear does not make a 13 inch tire to fit my EZ Loader trailer. Guess I'll have a lot of time to see what the rest of you think of them.

Thanks for the heads up Jack and good to know that Discount Tire stocks them Mark. That's my go to tire place and I'll be buying these tires there in a year or two.
