April I replaced my three year old Duro tires which had side wall cracks.

Purchased Denman in part because of this sites positive reviews.
I went with load range D
air pressure 55 psi have not had any issue so far with 1500 miles.

(don't go down the air pressure path. I had 4 tire dealers tell me 4 different stories from use 35psi tv door sticker to 65 psi max tire pressure rating.

I picked 55 psi because of my own logic based on weights heat tire expansion - lol.

"If I were to buy ST tires again I would go with Denmans first and Maxxis second. both of these tires are also available in a 15" E rating. FWIW I sent an email to Denman asking them if their ST tires have a 65 mph. max. speed rating? The answer I got back was "In regards to the speed rating - our tires are not speed rated. It is recommended to obey all posted speed limits when using our tires It is also recommended to always maintain proper air pressures."


I just put a set of Denman "E" radials on my TT. I asked what the speed rating was and was told that there were none; I then checked the tires themselves for a warning about speed; and there were none on the tires.

I just replaced my Duros with a set of Denman Express ST radials. These are LR C 14" tires and from the sidewall information max inflation is 50psi and they were made in Mexico. That being said, Denman apparently no longer makes the Express and according to posts on one of the forums, the new Denman ST radials are purportedly made in China, which was supposedly confirmed by Denman. Not sure what this means, but I do know that mine were made in Dec of 08 in Mexico.

I just had a set of Denman Cargo tires installed they are ST205/R15, load range D. I could not find a made in China anywhere on the tire, nor could I find a speed limit. Cold pressure is 65 psi. The TT seems to pull better with them than it did with the Carlisle tires that blew or had a tread separation.

I was going to say the same thing but I figured someone whould say I was nuts. The overall composure of the trailer seems smoother.
