I lost one Goodyear Marathon (a rear) a couple of years ago, for no
apparent reason. The tread completely separated from the side walls.
Everyone thought it was a Firestone. I have been thinking about some
new trailer tires myself, and would be interested in alternatives.
Tire Rack does not carry a Marathon with a load rating for my trailer.
