Sailun 80 vs. 85 size

[Twopetes]

Sailun 85’s for 4 years, No rubbing and compared to the original Westlakes, the Sailuns are great!. I am looking at my tires right now and I have no space issues. The extra 1/2” in net height is not an issue.

Putting a safer tire on my rig in my opinion just makes sense. Kind of like the disc brake upgrade I just completed. The real question is why don’t the mfg’s do it.

And regarding trailer height, I would be more concerned with the taller bed heights in the newer model trucks. Adding 4-5 inched to the hitch height not only changes the way the trailer sits on the wheels, it adds to the overall height for clearance.
