Direct Replacement for ST 195/75r14

[ClarenceorDion]

I searched high and low for a direct replacement for the Carlisle ST 195/75r14 tires I had on my boat trailer and found a set of ST 205/65r14 at Tire Man of Lake Havasu made by Vision Wheel.

The Carlisle tires only held up for 3 seasons and were beat to hell I estimate less than 6000 miles on the tires. The Carlisle were bias ply compared to the Vision tire which is a radial. The speed rating on the Vision is better as well at 70 mph vs the Carlisle at 55 mph

Has anyone else used this tire? If so, what are your opinions?

Don't know about those. I run the kumho 857 tires. Load range d and have good luck with them so far. Had one blow out coming cross country but the 40 is a rough ass road and the tire was 6 years old

They are hard to find but they are good tires. I waited for over a month for 4. This was in 2018
