A quick note share a great experience with Keystone.
The Duro tires on my Energy TH that were only 14 months old and had 8/32 of tread left started cracking and seperating horibly. I left numerous un-returned messages with Duro. I called Keystone and 2 weeks later I had 4 tires at my door.
The tires they sent are Taskmasters (China) but hopefully they will last a little longer than the Duro.
Thank you Keystone

Replacing Chinese made bommbs with OTHER Chinese made bombs isn't My idea of great but wishing you good luck with them.

Let us know how the taskmasters work out. I junked my duro's and bought Maxxis. very happy with them. The makers could save themselves a lot of trouble by putting decent tires on to begin with rather than the trashiest lowest bidder they can find.

While I share your sediments with the Chinese tire problem, they are definitely junk but in fact have more that don’t explode than what do… only time and careful inspections will tell..
the trailer tire problem in general is caused by a American industry (RV) that puts profit over safety and under sizes the tires on almost everything they sell, then puts the cheapest tire they can find on them to… it is a recipe for disaster…
Once sold Keystone wasn’t responsible for the tires, so in that sinse they did do the right thing and more than others have done…

I've had to call Keystone twice and both times they were rude and short with me on the phone. They installed a 50A breaker on the hydraulic pump for my slideouts. When you would bring them in the breaker would trip. I checked the amperage and found they draw 65A whem bring in the slides. I talked with Keystone and they told me the amperage is ok and the breaker needs to be replaced with an 80A. Keystone more or less told me it was my problem and wouldn't do anything for me. The coach is a 2006 Mountaineer 5er.
