Tire choice

Read my topic about comparing tires for replacement.
here it is


but yust normal P-tires are OK if they can bare the GAWR+10% at least,but up to 30% is also OK.This goes for every kind of tire exept ST.
If you want to keep using ST read my topic and reduce maximum load by 18% to compare with LT or P-tires with speedcode Q ( up to 160km/99m/h).
Then for that reduced maximum load, the 10 to 30% reserve goes.

type " Kumho 857 " in the "search " box in the upper left corner of this page .
Plenty of threads
99 mph speed rating
2271# on an LT scale
size 205R14
load range is D
it fits where a 205/75R14 fits .

I use P tires on my single axle trailers up to 3400 lbs. I also use P tires on a couple of my smaller tandem axle trailers.

However I've noticed many of the 78 series P tires are becoming scarce.

Not knowing what size tires you need leads to lots of guessing and not so good recommendations.

According to one of your earlier threads, you've had the original ST's for six years. Since they've lasted that long trouble free despite exceeding their speed limit, one would think you'd be satisfied with their performance-?

That aside:

I'm betting that your trailer has 13 or 14 inch tires. Nobody makes an LT that fits rims that size. Kumho makes a 14" trailer tire that is also sold in Europe (but not in North America) for vans. It doesn't say "ST" on it. It might fit the rims if they're 14", though I believe it's a little taller/wider than typical OEM ST's. Fit in the wheel well may be problematic.

Best advice: buy good quality ST's and slow down.

I've always used LT tires after replacing the original ST tires.

Have the tire shop match the size of your ST tires and make sure you get a weight rating on the tire that is more than what is required just for added safety.

I use Cooper LT tires they have been working well for me. I believe I am in the minority on the list however. I haven't seen any posts where the folks here are using Coopers. So you will get lots and lots of suggestions on different tires. I think the majority consensuses is, do not get anything made in China. But to answer your question I use Discovery H/T LT I like them. My rig weighs 8000 or there abouts.
