Ya'll may find this interesting.

What I am understanding from this report is that the trailer tires are tested at 88% of their max load rating at a speed NO GREATER than 55 MPH.
Why do ST tires fail? Because they are TESTED at 50-55 MPH MAX. I imagine that we would see a lot less ST tires blowing out if people would simply have MORE tire than they have load and slow the rigs down to 50-55 ish MPH.
A tire that is allowed to run at full capacity (Both weight and speed in these cases) will wear out quicker than the tires running excess capacity at a slower speed.
Thanks!

This guy has no idea what facts are and if anything misrepresents the facts with accusations and innuendo, and his single and independent opinion is the only ever right one and are the facts, just ask him… you don’t have to… just read what he says about steel trailer wheels then look up Dexter steel wheels on their website…
Just like his misrepresentation and misquoting of the facts on the ST tires testing procedures, that are tested differently and to a lessor standard than other highway tires BTW, just nothing like he is saying…
He could start by reading the opening line of the standard he uses to support his claim…
Standard No. 119; New pneumatic tires for motor vehicles with a GVWR of more than 4,536 kilograms (10,000 pounds) and motorcycles.
