Using RV trailer tires as a standard for your posting you have invited more than just the Special Trailer (ST) into the mix. A very high percentage of RV trailers with axle ratings up to and including 6750# GAWR axles are fitted with ST tires. After that weight rating we will start finding a larger number of Light Truck LT tires that are designed for trailer axles. Once the axle rating gets to 8000# the medium duty truck tire is king of the road and the favorite brands will be made in the USA.
Currently Carlisle Tire may be the only full time active producer of ST tires made in the USA.
