Trailer tires?
Hey guys what trailer tires . I have a 14000+ load on a Road Runner tripple axle .It has 225/75/r15 on it now need to change out for piece of mind, couple are older all are D load range .Also thinking I should go up to load range E. I have had trouble in the past with the D rated but maybe because they were old. With all the bad PR on GY marathons and Carliasle seperating what do I go too ?

i asked same question a while back at tire shops. one shop said stay with D, especially for long distance. D tires dont build up as much heat and cool quicker. Made since and I didnt have spend money on new tires, no problems put another 6k miles on them no problems. By the way i tow between 14 and 17 k lbs on a tripple axle. Hope this helps, Jaime

I've got E's on my trailer and never an issue. Can't recall brand, but they are not GY's or Carlisles.
