I don't know about the fit on a Cruiser but I have had them on our trailer for about the past 3 years and no issues. Since all new trailers seem to come on junk tires now no matter how much money you spend on one our next trailer will have BFG Commercial LT's installed as soon as I drive it off the lot.

I have them on my PP also.  They are a little taller but I have lots of room.  I.put them on three years ago and still look new.

Greg, have you looked at or considered Goodyear Marathons?

I have been running a set for 2 or 3 years now. When I bought them I requested they be made here in the states, and they were.

I switched to LT tires from the nylons that came on our Paradise Pointe. Mine are an off brand called Delta Sierra. Since we don't travel alot of miles from home I didn't spend a lot of money. $400 for all four of them and they have performed outstanding. The nylons that came factory were wearing very badly. These are almost 5 years old with maybe 3 or 4 thousand miles on them and they are wearing great. When I have to replace them I will not hesitate to go to another LT tire.

Lloyd, I thought all the Goodyear Marathons in production now are made in China? I know the ones they are putting in the Redwoods are because a couple of those guys have had issues with them.

Do they say Goodyear Marathons, or just Goodyear?

Also I would check if they had a serial # or not. There are Goodyear  plants in the US and Canada. All operating.

Lloyd, all the ones I have personally seen on Redwoods say Goodyear Marathon on them. Same for the ones on the Redwood forum that have blown out.
