For those of you wanting to switch to the Sailun 215/75R17.5 "H" Rating...

Simple Tire is running their Memorial Day sale - $135.00 + tax

and the 235/80R16 is $156 + tax

2 months ago I got tires , went to the larger 235/75/17.5 size to be able to run slightly less air pressure . I paid $192.00 not on sale at that time. I was not going to go 2300 miles round trip to Nashville on 6 year old tires.

My sailuns have timed out. I have checked in my area (central Indiana) and have not found a dealer. I checked Simpletire.com and the nearest installer to me is about an hour and a half away. My question is have any of you heard of Iron head tires? Before you laugh me off the page I checked into them and they are made by Sailun. They have a company located in Canada and they are noted for heavy truck tires. They have the 235/75/17.5 size in a J rating and I have a store that carries them just ten miles away from me. Interested to see if anyone has heard of them and what your opinion would be.

I do know that they are handled from Canada but made in China. Do not anything else about them .

I had the local mechanic install my Sailuns, cost me $20 each for mount and spin balance.

Thanks for getting back to me. Just curious if you had them shipped to your home or to the tire shop that mounted them for you. Also what air pressure do you put in your tires? Thanks for putting up with all the questions.

I had them shipped to my house that was free. I took off two tires at a time and ran them down to my local guy and he did the install.

I run my tires at 120 pounds

Did you get the Iron Head tires?

[Greg C.]

We haven't yet but we probably will pretty soon. We aren't full timers. We only put about 25 to 30,000 miles in six years so I don't think the risk would be that high with the Iron Head tires.
