Always blame the tires, never the way they are driven. yesterday going down I94 in Wisconsin is was passed by a truck pulling a New fiver. He was a contract carrier delivering a new trailer with Indiana transport liscense. I was going 74 mph.He passed me quickly. Tires are rated in most cases and all ST tires at 65 MPH.Yes I know, they may have been Michlien ribs, but do you really beileve a brand new trailer would have them? So here we are, a tire that is driven in excess of it's rated speed and you want to blame the tire maker (China bombs)
A trailer during delivery is the lightest it will ever travel on a highway. Speed, weight and inflation are all inter related! Running light over 65 will have a lot less impact on the tires than after the trailer is purchased and loaded up in some cases close to GVWR and the max tire rating. Just saying! Chris
