PM Mama Tryed. He is in the wholesale tire business and he is very knowledgeable about trailer tires. He can give you up to date info on Goodyear Marathons and others. He can also give you a good price and save you a lot of time doing research.

what size rims do you have?

Maxxis was the only 15" tire I could find with an e rating.

[QUOTE=Sydwayz;2859007]Forget trailer tires.

Go with Firestone TransForce LT 16" E load range tires. They work great on a trailer.

I agree. My trailer came with LT truck tires. I have a steady supply of take offs from my 2500 GMC....never have to worry about dry rot either.

The GY Marathon's would run 95.00 a tire plus freight.

if you were going to buy new wheels any way, bump up to 16". alot more tires available in the load range you are looking for. goodyear actually make a g rated tire that is used on stacker trailers and heavy boat applications. it is a great tire, but expensive.

Here's my advice for what it is worth:

If your trailer has spring suspension go with Load range E

If your trailer has torsion tube go with Load range D

Here is why, the springs do not flex as much as the torison tube so the side walls take a lot more flexing running down the road, the higher load range will force more bounce into the springs and less into the sidewalls. The torsion tubes have have great travel and have a more gradual progressive rate since they have more travel thus allowing more of the travel to go to the suspenison rather than the sidewall - you don't need heavy sidewalls unless you have allot of weight.

With springs you usally have equalizers between the 3 springs and the bounce is transfered from the front axle back to the rear axle and vice verus which again beats up the tire sidewalls - with torsion each wheel is seperate with no reverb.

Also, if you were changing everything go with the largest dia rim and tire you can fit - the bigger the tire the slower it turns the longer it lasts and everything else!!!! Common sense.

My trailer has 16" LoadStar Karrier radial tires load range D with torison tube and 15,000 lbs, I have as of last week 17,000 miles in 2 years on those tires and will get another 10,000 out of them with ease.

Just my two sense.

Thanks guys Im planning on the using the Maxxis brand so as not to have to buy new wheels . But yea Il go to 16 when I can
