I didn't need to hear the info regarding the tires as I guess I knew it already. I am cheap but not suicidal so new tires it is... thanks! I just wanted some reinforcement... I read over some of the old threads on this forum regarding tires and there is a lot of controvery as to use ST or LT tires and Carlise tires seem especially hated by some with reports of blow outs and such common.
The decals are already kind of sketchy with a bit of fading and pealing. They don't seem to actually be decals but seem to be vinyl stick ons I think.
If the trailer comes with a jack (it has four leveling jacks on the corners), do I jack up one side, take them in, then the other? I do have jackstands but placing them under an axle and having them support the trailer weight makes me uneasy. Dry weight is 3820 lbs and the jack stands are rated 2K lbs I think (bought them for my trike to raise the rear and hold it for service). Is there a clever way to remove all four tires/rims for replacement at a tire place?
Should I go LT or ST when I buy the tires? Tirees are standard ST205/75D14; any brand preferences from the lighter trailer folks; GVWR is 5500.
