I don’t have a Valor but experience has shown me that many RV owners gravitate towards a couple of brands when considering an upgrade:
- Goodyear
- Sailun
That doesn’t mean these are the best case for you or even better than what came on your Valor, but they’ve provided good results for many RVers in the past. I’ve used both brands on the past in heavy 5th wheels and have been pretty happy. Others have had mixed results as no product is always perfect.
Goodyear will be more expensive and come with a better warranty. Sailun be less expensive but generally won’t cover damages related to blowouts.
It’s been a while since I’ve gotten deep into any tire studies and user experiences, so my info above could be dated.

Ran Goodyear 16” G614s for 5 years and 25k miles. Not an issue. Then went to a 17.5” Sailun for another 2 years and 11k miles. Looked like new when I sold them.
I will says the Sailuns were very heavy duty. Almost like a commercial tire.
I did get them all balanced.
Good luck.

I recommend Goodyear tire. Stability and handling are excellent, even on wet roads. The tire grips to roads as it avoids unnecessary skids, which would otherwise be great causes for concern. If you do not mind spending additional money on a high-quality travel trailer tire, this model will not disappoint.

Did y'all get "G" rated tires? Discount Tire doesn't have G rated Goodyear Enduro. I'm not particularly keen on buying a tire from Wal-Mart (Sailun). The ones that came on my 310RL are G rated, 4410 pound load rating. I'd like to replace with same. My tires are approaching 2 years and i usually like to get new every 2 or 3 years before they blow out.
