We don't sell Sailun so have no information about them or their quality whatsoever. The best load range G 235/80R16 trailer tire is the Westlake ST235/80R16 Radial Trailer Tire - Load Range G # WE76FR.

The # WE76FR has a deep 11/32" tread depth, indicator so you can see when the depth is getting worn, and they also offer a 5-year warranty. That's an impressive length for a trailer tire, and more than double the amount of similar tires, whose manufacturers probably don't trust to last as long.

Answer 9

I would not recommend the use of a hitch extender at the back of an RV carrying heavy e-bikes near the capacity of the rack. That would be a recipe for potential problems for sure. How long of a shank do you need?
