Interesting information on this thread. I too am looking for replacement tires to replace the Unicorns on my 3055. Also posted in the Big Horn Tire thread. Some of these comments bring up the following questions in comparing the Goodyear G614s with the Michelin XPS (two most common recommended tires):
Are they ST tires or LT tires? As mentioned previously, the ST tires are made for trailer applications but the LT tires are not (flexibility), as far as I understand.
When determining whether made in USA or China, does it specifically indicate the country or do you have to decypher the DOT code?
Understand about the load ranges. My 3055 have the 3750 lb wheels so I could go to G tires but am concerned with wheel well, shocks and individual tire clearance if I go with the 85 series versus the 80 series tires. Do they make both the G614s and XPS tires in the 80 series?
