Trailer tires vs regular tires
I've heard that you can use regular tires on campers as long as you get one load range higher.Any input on this. Thanks

Over all (all things equal)...a bias ply is stronger than a radial
The reason radials are 'better' for cars and trucks has to do with several
attributes. Rolling resistance is better, side wall strength is better and
ride quality is better
None of that is of much for trailers, other than roll resistance...that is a
good thing for all vehicles
Going wider and lower profile will have the radial do better than any bias ply and
even belted bias ply, which is a hybrid of both radial and bias ply (you won't see
many of these, as the architecture fights each other)
