JimLin,
Any idea why Discount Tire (2 separate stores, over the course of 3 years) never mentioned all the tire options you've listed? I just bought Carlisle ST tires for my toy hauler to replace Pirelli Scorpions. Thanks for any insight.
I sure don't. However judging from some of Discount tires website bs in their adds its not surprising.
I would honestly say sounds like those two don't have a good customer base of trailer owners other than maybe lawn service trailers/once in a while RV owner/etc.
Having a good customer base of various type of trailer owners can give a tire dealer some valuable input on what works best vs what a tire mfg or their advertising folks says should have worked.
I've read on forums where some Discount tire stores recommend and sell and mount LT tires for their trailering customers.
I've bought lots of tires from Discount tire for my small 5 trailer fleet when I was on the road but they sold and mounted tires that I asked for. One thing I don't do is ask any tire dealer what they recommend for any of my trailers.
And they simply may not want to push the brands on the list.
