Trailer tires
Does anybody recommend a good trailer tire. Besides Carlisle,size 225/75/15

MAXXIS ...................don't buy carlisle
|
Anything but car$hitlise...
|
Step up in load range.
mine require E and I run G instead |
For what it's worth, I bought these
(http://www.ebay.com/itm/2-X-Freestar...RWVhho&vxp=mtr) I bought 2, then 2 more, finally 2 more (all six tires replaced) NO problems. Kept breaking belts before. (Goodyear etc) The shop that mounts my tires said most all trailer tires are made in China. Randy |
Another input for NO Carlisle - they don't stand behind their warranties.
Buy the highest load tire you can find in the size you need. |
Maxxis

E load light truck tires. No trailer tires.

Same advice I always give:
1) Step up to 16" wheels if at all possible. Even if you have to raise your fenders a bit, it's worth it. Trailer wheels are cheap. More diameter means less heat. 2) Get LT E-rated truck tires, like discussed on several other threads; on the 16" wheels aforementioned. 3) If you have to stay with 15" trailer tires, go with the biggest size you can fit. Again, more diameter means less heat. 4) I will only buy Maxxis brand trailer tires. They are the best thing on the market. A friend did have a blowout of a sidewall on a brand new Maxxis tire, but we feel like that was an isolated flaw. Maxxis makes the only E-rated 15" trailer tires that I have found: http://www.maxxis.com/trailer/traile...nflation-chart There are quite a few other threads on this topic. Definitely do not buy Carlisle. I can't recommend Goodyear Marathons. I've bought all of my Maxxis tires on eBay. Be sure to care for your tires properly; also many other posts on this topic. |
