Well I get into the storage facility last week and my tires have a were manufactured in the 23rd week of 2010. That will mean that they will be almost exactly 4 years old when I do my Mount Rushmore trip this summer. I think I will go ahead and replace them. Does anyone have any recommendations for a good trailer tire?

Sean,
If you can list the size of the tire, you''get more pertinent results.
I just replaced all of my 205-70-15's and my choices went along these lines: First choice--LT truck tire because of the assumed durability, greater speed rating, and less failures than trailer tires. I could not find an LT tire, locally, that fit because of wheel well clearance issues. Second choice--An ST trailer tire, available locally, that fit and was an upgrade in load rating from the C Load tires I had. I chose the 215 75-15 Carlisle Radial Trail RH in load range D. Price at Discount Tire w/road hazard policy and mounting/balancing was $500 for four. These tires have a greater air pressure (65psi) so one has to make sure the rims are rated for the increase in pressure. Most steel rims will handle 65psi.
