TT tire upgrade, should I go with Loadstar
I just purchased a used TT that has a GVWR of 7500 lbs. The tires are 205's with a C load range of 1820 lbs. So 4 tires gives me a total support for 7240 lbs. I know the tongue weight is supported ...

If you're thinking of upgrading to a larger wheel you might try this place http://www.tredittire.com/Aluminum-Wheels-C10.aspx, I emailed them about the T07-6 lug rim and they quoted me $85.00ea. I thought that was a good deal. So I'm sure your 5 lug rims would be cheaper. Shipping was not included in the price. But I see your in FL and they have a distribution center there so may not be too bad. They carry steel and aluminum rims. Maxxis seems to be all the rage on here, but reading on other forums the GY Marathons seem to do well also. For 1500 miles a year Maxxis may be overkill. I just traded a TT that had GY Marathons on it from the factory. They had 10,000 miles on them and still had 40% tread left. Most tire sites suggest replacing tires after 5-7 yrs anyway. IMO I wouldn't get anything in an ST unless it was a GY or Maxxis.
