another tire question
We noticed dry rot on the 2 passenger side tires today. Drivers side tires are ok. These are the original tires from when we bought the tt in Jan 2011. We are putting this tt up for sale on craigsl...

So the spare looks ok and it turns out we have the trackmaster tires on the tt. I think I will switch one of the tires for the unused spare (that has always been kept covered) use one of the old tires as a spare and buy 1 new tire. If for some reason the spare seems sketchy then we will get 2 new tires. I will let the next owner get the new tires of their choosing (whether it be trackmaster, Carlisle or maxxis). Hopefully I'm not being too foolish here.
Sounds like a good plan.
The next owner maybe the type that pulls the trailer a couple of short trips a year to a local campground and the trailer sits 95 percent of its life. Cheap ST/any brand tires work great for that purpose.
Then the flip side the next owner may put thousands of highway miles a year on the trailer. If he's wise he will find a tire type/brand that will stand up long term for that type of use.
