Those are some bad ass tires

Yeah, I was wondering about that. They look like tires for the TV.

But why do you need high traction tires for the trailer?
Maybe they reduce sideways slippage ... ?

Have you ever pulled a camper in the Australian Outback? No, I haven't either, but I can understand the reason for the tough tires from what my Australian friends have described to me.

Er, I can't imagine the Australian continent has any worse trails than the North American. But, I haven't pulled a trailer on any of those either.

And I understand your point about "toughness". No doubt that's what I'm seeing, as well as increased traction.

Basically it Australia has more PAVED roads per capita than the U.S. Generally in very good condition. On the other hand it has THREE times the number of graded unpaved roads. Non-roads that are driveable on anyone's guess
