Best Tires for Travel Trailer?
It is time to replace our Travel Trailer tires. GoodYear tires came with the TT but we had one blow out on us coming home from our last trip. Any advice on which brand is best for replacement? Curre...

What part of LT TIRE do you not understand ?! :) :p
Some of us have used ST tires with no safety issues whatsoever. Therefore,as I have stated previously they are an "unnecessary expense".
:S
The thing, "CK", is that only those "LT" letters matter to those with A Certain Mindset. Logic, reason, and actual statistical proofs don't enter into the convo at all.
That's gotten to be so ludicrously true that RV manufacturers have finally tumbled to it and are now offering so-called "LT" tires as an (expensive) option on new trailers. Thing is, in most cases we're talking about a whole NEW kind of "LT tire"- specially made and labeled "for trailer use only", and speed limited...though I think in most cases the limit's higher than that of the lowly ST.Here's one example They're ST tires in drag, but as long as they have the coveted "LT" branding on the sidewall folks will be willing to pay through the nose for them and I guess sleep soundly in their beds at night.
Marketing geniuses once again seize upon Crowd-Sourced Hysteria and turn it to the advantage of the Marketeers! Gotta hand it to those fellas...:B
