On Amazon the price was $100.93 and $119.95, respectively for Carlisle and Goodyear. But it takes a little bit to get them; maybe a week so, so the speed of service is certainly part of the value. I paid about $15 each for mounting and balancing. Both are good quality tires. I run Goodyear AT's on my TV.

I purchased the ST 225/75R15 E load rating. Priced with 3 tire shops and all were within 4 dollars. Did not have time to order online. FYI

We paid $135 + tax for our Carlisles, D range, ST 205/75 14 tires on Amazon. Now they cost $150 + tax. Not a bad value for the money. Are the Goodyear equivalent size/range really worth that much more money? Apart from opinions, are there any actual facts demonstrating superior construction and materials?
I would pay more for union labor to manufacture the tire, but does that labor add up to $150 more per set? Just curious.

Carlisle Trail HDs (D-load-rated) have been great on our 179.

On a 179 the general consensus is a load range D ST tire (ST225/75R 15 or similar). "ST" is for trailers. Goodyear and Carlisle are popular brands.

Heading out for a longer trip. Have no confidence in the tires. Suggestions for replacements? TIA
