I have a 2004 3023 with Marathon tires(15") on it. don't know the mileage but we have used it a good bit. We live in Ga. and like to camp(in Ga., of course) in the north....Va. Pa. NY. Vt. Ma. etc. Never had any tire problems, but we are careful about pressures, generally run them at 50-55 psi, and never , repeat, never overload the trailer.
we do not "tank" (carry) water. Before this last trip we put new on Maxxis Radials, and had no problems.(2200 miles). As an added precaution, I made a couple of mud flaps to protect the outside plumbing and keep the dirt down to a "dull roar" I would have to say that the major problems with tires comes from either overloading, over or under inflating or high speed. Will let you know about the Maxxis tires as we put more miles and age on them.......Jim
